    Better motor mount for a classic?

    I have an oddball here. this is a customer's LWB that we put the Isuzu diesel in and the mounts are already starting to fail after a couple years. I thought I had heard somewhere about some Jaguar mounts that hold up better, but can't specifically recall. I'm thinking a softer mount would...

    RRC Center Consoles

    When is someone going to make an aftermarket replacement for these things?

    95 RRC Heated windshield issue

    cant get the damn thing to work. everything checks out, but no luck. i even changed the MFU and the whole fuse box to be sure. i ground the PY wire on the MFU and it works as normal, but for some reason cant get the MFU to do it on its own.
