Default Rb5/6 wing mounts?

Can any one tell me if they are the same on the rb6 as the rb5?
And do they fit on any other cars also?
Thanks

The part numbers are different, um709 for the rb6 and la213 for the rb5. The RB6 mounts have location "bobbles" that key into the shock mount, the RB5 ones are flat so would possibly fit other cars if the hole centres are the same

Yes as Andy says, you cut the bobble off and it sits flat. The centres were either identical or near enough for me to be able to use an RB6 mount on my vega RB5

Yeah it was a lucky discovery. Racing at Broxtowe. Broke a rear wing mount and Kev only had rb6 spares with him. Removed the bobbles and it went straight on. Loads stronger. wing mount holes won't line up though you will need a new wing ideally.
