I cant prove that theory, but from my limited knowledge there are a lot of tier 2 and tier 3 suppliers that supply both - I am not sure with plastics as someone else said but the seating for both is from Futuris. Then you have steel suppliers etc that supply both. Not sure about companies like Bosch and PBR. But there are a lot of suppliers that most know very little about FAPM could provide more info.
