and your right it's not the first time it's come up. It's the third, as this is the third time I've seen a product that has reproduced what I developed. Such is life.

I recall, since when the first mounts for the B4 came out they were steel and there was a heated debate about those and the weight being in the "wrong" place (if there is such as thing), hence why i think the alloy ones were introduced by you
There have been several threads with comments like these (not all of them started about your products) - here is just one example -

I think RDRP felt the same when their brass rear mounts for the DEX210 were copied after they showed them 6 months before anyone else, but as I keep saying that is life, copying will always be there
Some great examples...
MIP CVD's - copied now by almost everyone
Schumacher Mini Spike - copied more than once
Brass front bulkheads by GHEA - now everyone makes them
and with all respect - all recent cars from Ansmann/Team C are a "copy" of somthing before them
