Default Motor Mounts

Went to 4 different parts stores, they all listed and stocked them for
C3 + others, none off them fit the frame, they all had minor differences, even the ones manufactered by the same suppliers. I've purchased several sets over the yr's & never had a problem before. So if your installing a motor you may want to check for fitment first.

Are they giving you the tall or short mounts? C3's use the short ones. The tall ones won't fit the frame. I've seen the tall ones listed for C3's in the parts books but it's wrong.
