yayy first post..ey everyone lol

Could anyone tell me the difference between the 2? the plates in question are ground control plates. I recently picked up a set of cortex dampers that have these on them..but they came off a 13 and I have an 06. Its always been my understanding that suspension set ups are the same between the s197 platform.

The plates just need to match the dampers, and the assembly will bolt into any S197 ‘05 to ‘14. So you don’t need to change anything to bolt that in your ‘06.

Early style plates need to go with early style struts. And vice versa with ‘11-‘14 parts.

Beware of the little "gotcha" when dealing with S197 GT500 struts - I'm pretty sure they all take the early style plates regardless of year.

Appreciate the heads up, They are the cortex street dampers but Ive loved Filips stuff since I saw performance autosport race it back in the day. Also good to see you active on here Norm!

I used to hang around the s197 forum actively still kinda do and you always gave solid advice for those out there
