[Ed Kellock]

I have the 034/Jeff Lewis brace on both my urq and CGT and highly recommend
it.

I tried posting this earlier today, but have yet to see it come across the
list, so heres goes again.....

The eBay part is a factory RR part. It is designed to anchor the clutch
master from the INSIDE of the car to the cast aluminum piece that supports
the pedals and steering column. In other words, yes this is an OEM  firewall
brace. If you don't have the RR aluminum support though, you would need to
modify your existing piece and it would be difficult (at best) to do it in
the car. You can see a picture of it here:

The option 034 offers, as you probably know, anchors the clutch master to
the steering rack mounting point at the wheel well, with no modification
needed. 

The 034 option is the clear choice winner IMHO. Unless you are a die hard,
gotta have OEM, kinda person.
