I just got in that area by chance (ahem.... by accident, the hub on my
Spider got crashed during a recent accident).

In germany you cannot get new 124 hubs anymore from FIAT but 132's --
they are for sure different, at least this is what my Fiat dealer tells
me. If you need I can look up the Fiat part number and price of the 132
hubs, then you should be able to get it via the usual US dealers.
