Phew finally managed to sign in, won't always let me post. Every so often I check to see if there is now a UK distributor with no joy but wouldn't these be fairly simple to get sent over from France they are only hoops that bolt onto a metal plate.

I tried contacting the distributor in France (last week) but so far no response :(

I may try and email the factory direct tomorrow, see if they can help.

Be shocked as to how much they are!! I have the price somewhere in an email. IIRC They are around 55 EURO's each! if I find the email, i'll post up the reply. I was going to get one as mine was giving way but I found a way to make it last slightly longer

They will respond...just takes time lol

Damnit! I wonder if someone here in the UK can make one if I take the old mount to them... Maybe a good plan B.

My next door neighbour works for a custom exhaust company and fitted mine for me.. If I bump into him I'll ask whether they could be of assistance..

Whichever way it may be worth getting/offering to get extra sets, mine are fine but at some point the rubber will go low mileage or not.

I was going to suggest trying them but I couldn't sign on again, do you know if they are planning to keep stock in the long run?

They said that its a common failure hence why they have them at the moment. They didn't say how long they will keep them though (must admit I didn't ask). I noticed they do an Orb for the Megane but not the Clio, so they must still have an account with orbisound so probably could get them in if they sold out.
