Febi bushings and similar products of late seem to be sourced in either China or India. The company seems to be mostly using their logo to sell “globally sourced products” nowadays. I stopped putting my trust into their products after an incident with a Febi bushing I installed and then went to replace in my OE Volvo V90 lower control arm. The Febi bushing shell was manufactured slightly too big, so that after getting it out, an OE bushing would simply freely slide in and out. One new set of control arms later, I’d rather use other brands than “made in China” Febi. Now, these “butterfly” Saab bushings are not steel pressed into aluminum, so may work perfectly fine, but still. I was happy to put on a Febi branded engine mount bearing Corteco logo and “made in Germany” label though, but that one was new old stock. Good quality parts are not easy to find unfortunately
