I have just had my 911L Bosch distributor refurbished. It has been returned without the capcitor I sent it away with.
My original capacitor had an integral fixing strip with hole for fixing screw.
The new capacitor I have from Porsche (616 602 227 00) is just a cylinder with the wire and terminal comimung out of it.
How am I supposed to secure this to the side of the distributor? Is there a part available that goes around the capacitor with holes to put the fixing screw through or do I need to fabricate one?
I notice the Marelli Capacitor available has the fixing strip attached to the capacitor body. Could I use one of these without affecting operation
Thanks in advance for any ideas/solutions

Google is your best friend!
iirc the condenser has a clip spot welded onto the body for the mounting to the dist body.
