caterham alternator mount

Does anybody use this bracket:

http://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=2415

It looks perfect for a 40a denso alternator (brise?) on the inlet side.

As the holes in these size are not aligned (bottom holes are aligned, but not upper ones) it is not easy to make a bracket and this is not very expensive.

Thanks!

I've got one in the garage I never used if you want one.
£55 delivered sound ok?

First thanks!

Mine looks different, I think I don´t have this bracket near the thermostat. I think the only way is using the holes highlighted. The upper holes are not aligned horizontally so is not so easy to get the alt correct. Not a problem withe the bottom holes.




The cater... bracket seem fine and if it works I would pay for it
