Monroe Strut Mount?

Has anyone seen this Monroe Strut Mount?
Monroe Part # 905907
Says it's for a 2.2 but we all know that all are the same as MAVEN stated many times.

http://cgi.ebay.ca/2005-05-CHEVROLET...3286.m20.l1116

Ran across this on ebay and I thought while this is NOT a performance mod it could be useful to someone who broke one of those 3 cheap GM bolts that they used on the strut mounts.
I've seen a few threads about people overtightening and breaking them off while installing a strut bar. This monroe mount looks like it uses higher quality bolts.

That's Ebay for you
I'm sure there is a better Monroe parts retailer where you can buy this part without the excessive shipping charge.
I just wanted to point out that your not at the mercy of the GM dealership if you need this part.

yes theyre good. there isnt really a "better" version available so these are as good as OEM but not better or worse. if yours are worn these are fine.

Click, good info!

Might need to replace mine. Does anyone know if this includes the bushing and everything inside? Is it the entire top piece of the strut where the top of the spring perches? I'd imagine you'd have to re-use the factory plastic spring isolator seat?

Anyone know specs on replacement mileage for this type of piece? Most all of my suspension is new besides the rack, so this might help relieve that slight vibration and wobble I have in my steering...

BTW rockauto.com has them for ~$24 a piece and they have reasonable shipping charges too.
