A 987 mount is around $170 (Check Suncoast). I just bought one. Porsche has had 11 yrs to improve the thing and it's used on all new Boxsters and Caymans that have a lot more power than mine.
Too ridged for street use is unnecessary, and will be uncomfortable.
The new product has a bit lighter frame that is obvious. What they've done with the rubbery insert is anyone's guess.
If it was a 10 min job to replace it, I'd maybe experiment, but labor considered, I only want to do this once.
