QUESTION TO ALL.

How many kinds of front top shock mounts were there for 131?

I was told they differed by hole distances but I see that there are also some with 5 holes not three.

Can someone help?

I want to buy two of these from Yagmur (as my rubber pieces are really worn, but Yagmur keeps telling me his have a different distance from hole center to hole center. Is this possible ?

Mine are 95 mm (hole center to hole center) and he says the ones he has are 10.5
 
Is this possible or we are simply miscommunicating  ?

I do not want to take mine apart but see pictures on which I match the installed mounts with a spare set of bottom mounts. They seem to match exactly ( 95mm center hole to center hole distance and 10.3 distance from far ends.

The 10.3 looks awful close to Yagmur 10.5.

Is it possible they are the same but measured inaccurately? 

Were there any other kinds? Is it possible his are different because Murat used different ones ?

Please share what you got under the bonnet , so maybe I will figure it out ?

Their are to my  knowledge at least 2 differing types of shock mount, the picture you posted show both, without re drilling (not advised) or making a new top mount plate for the wing (again not advised) i dont think their is interchangability.
I posted some pictures a while back here on this forum of the two.
Ill go search and see if i can find the thread.
