    I am trying to do a 16v swap into a 93 Cabriolet. I have the old 8v out of the car and plan on painting the engine bay before the 16v is dropped in, but I figured now is the time to work on the power steering rack since it is accesible. I would like to replace the bushings that hold it to the firewall with polyurethane ones...but I can not find a set for the power rack! I also need to replace the UPPER boot...the one that the steering column goes into and through the firewall. I cannot seem to locate either of these items in a search on vwv or in aftermarket suppliers catalogs/websites. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!

    I've searched the east coast, west coast, and everywhere in between and can't find poly rack mounts anywhere....I've even e-mailed Prothane and BFI and have never got a responce from either....as for the column boot, I'm not sure....I didn't need one so I never searched.
