Sansui G-8000 rear bumper measurements

I asked about this last year and confirmed one detail I needed but it turns out I need more info this time.

Does anyone have a Sansui G-8000, G-8700, or G-801 with rear bumpers? I know the spacing between the mounting screws is 90-91mm but I need to know the depth of the bumper (how far it sticks out from the rear panel). I have a bumper for the G-9000 but the 8000 bumpers look a little shorter in photos.

The G-9000 bumpers are 24mm x 145mm and stick out 50mm from the rear panel.

I'm trying to help someone in Poland refurbish a G-8000 and the bumpers are missing.

Cheers

This question has been asked before I think; I also think I answered it. Try a search...
You did provide the screw spacing and also pointed out the different in depths of 'cases':
91mm centre to centre on the bumpers. I also note that the overall dimensions of the cases of the 8700/9700 are the same except for the depth which is 20mm greater on the 9700.
Did you mean to say the bumpers themselves were 20mm different in depth?
 
The reason I started a new thread was because I wanted to learn the depth of the bumper itself -- how far it stands out from the rear panel. The G-9XXX has a 50mm deep bumper but the G-8XXX looks a bit smaller.

50mm sounds like a lot that's 2 inches.

I just measured my AU-717 bumpers and they are 28mm wide, 30mm deep with 90mm hole centres. I would expect the depth to be close as the other dimensions are the same but 20mm different?

The AU-717 bumpers are small compared to the G-9000 bumpers. Here's the G-9000 bumpers. These are my printed ones but they were based on measurements of a broken OEM bumper an AK member sent me. There's no terminals on the back and the bumpers are mostly to protect the heat sink fins.

The G-8000 bumpers look like they're somewhere in between the AU-*17 bumpers and the G-9*00 bumpers.
