TRW make lower arms and other parts for Porsche. so the porsche part and TRW are identical and the same part, made in the same factory.

My local Porsche mechanic found in recent years, the much cheaper 'TRW' part was impossible to buy, yet, the identical 'porsche' part was in stock for twice the price.

He suspected that Porsche had too many in stock and was putting pressure on TRW not to sell lower arms direct.

But he is finding now that after a couple of years of that, TRW are starting to sell again
