Are you sure? Because the pinto in the capri that I have are steel, and look similar to a crossflow mount.
Could the cast ali mounts be what is used in sieras ,if so how much are they new?

On the 1600 Capri we originally gutted they were steel mounts.

They are Sierra mounts, and they grace my own vehicle. Robin Hood use them too.

Ian ,
I'm in west yorkshire,Mirfield ,which is a bit out of driving reach.
I know it is a lot to ask but I would be prepared to pay postage for them providing you don't mind the bit of hassle?
