I don't see how that might be possible. Did I mention anything about this when 
you were here? I suspect it's more likely that you've been to Bug mechanics who 
are expecting to see the late Bug mount, which IS different, but type 3s never 
got this style.  

I should have a good used mount, but I think all the MT IRS type 3s use the 
same mount. You might need a new one if your old one has separated, allowing 
the nose of the transmission to move backwards when you accelerate.
