I'm not even sure what you're asking. Sounds like you're talking about the bumper stop. Never noticed the fit, didn't think it really mattered. The bumper stop only seems to kick in when the car bottoms out, there should be a gap between the bumper stop and the mount.

In my experience, when the bump rubber isn't tightly installed on the mount, because the bump stopper is movable, whenever the damper is compressed, you could easily hear the rattling noise from the bump stopper; I was asking because I've never seen any OEM that has not tightly held the bump stopper on the strut insulator mount. BMW, VW, Toyota, and Hyundai, they all have strut mount that holds tight the bump stopper. It does matter in my opinion; not in the functioning aspect, but in the noise aspect. That's why I was curious if I order wrong items or MB used to do it in this way.
