Hi Volks,

  I didn't even have a chance to check on the parts
you listed, before I was told Type 3 parts would no
longer be sold, (again the sales person's words not
mine).  But I'm sure for whatever the reason,
(licensing, or a desire not to bother with us T3'ers,
and using the licensing as an excuse???, or "insert
you favorite reason here".) the parts you show are NLA
through MAM.  This may just be a temporary thing and
T3 parts MAY be available in the future?????

These are what I checked on:

YMMV....???   If you have any doubts and wish to check
on these parts for yourselves call 1-800-500-1500.  Or
e-mail  mail@mamotorworks.com.  Or if you wish, you
can  express your disire for them to still carry Type
3 parts. It may make a difference if enough of us
speak up.  Then again maybe not.  Someone please
contact MAM and tell me/the List that I'm wrong.
