I've been stung by ****part: rear leaf springs, one side sagging and the dowel pins were not the correct diameter. I think I'm going to use genuine stuff as much as possible now. A few years ago I fitted a genuine clutch 90/110 master cylinder to my SIII no problems - it seemed identical apart from a plastic reservoir cap.
