Here are a few pics of an idea for a simple upper coilover mount. I found these parts in a pile of MR2 Rear Coilover pieces that I no longer need.
Before I toss them in the dumpster, I thought I'd offer them here.
My thinking is you can put a few spot welds between the rings and the factory upper mount. (shown in red arrows)
Add a poly bushing and you have a simple and cheap coilover upper mount.



I have 5 pairs of the steel rings. If there is significant interest, (like 20 pairs or more) I'll make more. I also have a stack of the Fiero factory upper mounts, so I can do them on an exchange basis for those that can't weld.



The tube is 2 1/4" OD and the round base is 3.75" OD



let me know if you are interested... email me dave at team321 dot com

I have 5 pairs of just the bare steel pieces
$30 per pair including us shipping
add $10 for canada

what are the other options for coilover hats? Send an email or pm or post what you believe to be a good price. I don't know how to price these nor do I know how to price a "ready-to-install" option on an exchange basis
I'm just trying to help out without losing $ or time from other biz endeavors.

not enough interest to make any more after these are gone... to bad since this is an easy and inexpensive solution.
... selling the three remaining sets for $30 / pair incl US shipping.
