Call IAP, I just bought one from them a few weeks ago. Expensive though, almost $300, but they should last a long long time.

Dr Alban,

I think you got the last one, it is not in stock. . . They are asking to call :)

Oh I thought you had the single clutch unit in your car, in any case I had to call IAP for mine. I'm not sure if they are interchangeable.

You wont until you take it out.
$300 for a "throw out" bearing (another name for it ) is outrageous.!!!

When you take it apart, take the bearing along to a local bearing supplier, they should able to cross reference it with brands like ,Timken, F.A.G.,SKF.

All very good brands. If that doesn't get you anywhere, try AFRA, Italy.
