What do you all reckon? Moody copies or a 'genuine' part? If the former can you please steer me toward a reasonably priced supplier of OEM. Cheers in advance. B :-)

http://www.autovaux....gine-mount.aspx I got the £32.46 ones from here, very happy with it

£70 for standard ones or £140 for these and never replace them again

It is tempting to go for the Vibra Technics (they've been on my radar for a while and like the idea of not 'revisiting' this task). I'm assuming the ''competition" mounts to be a little stiffer than the "road spec". Whilst I drive reasonably 'hard' on the road, track days are only once in a blue moon. What do you recommend for me, "competition" or "road spec"? Cheers in advance.

I have road spec in the race car and they are fine. Been in for two and a half years. You may find that you get unwanted vibration with the competition ones.

Good call! I'll have a think about it. From posts on here can be a PITA to fit!

is that £110 per side?!?!?!

 

Given how easy the job it, I'd treat the OEM (or copy, which aren't that bad unless you drive like an ass) mounts as part of the annual service

I've had a pair of road spec mounts sat in a box in the garage for 4 years. Haven't had a problem with them.

Price for the pair. Having read up here I'll swap out for OEM (L and R + polly inserts B and F) and closely monitor. Really can't be dealing with custom bushes etc. for a snug Vibra Tech fit.... Thanks for the tips folks!

Price for the pair.

No. That's each.

S**t the bed! That's my mind made up then. OEM it is (as just lashed out a bundle on a total brake system overhaul)! This time next year Rodder's.... Hahaha.

Just ordered. As always, good place to be for reassurance. Gonna do the whole lot with poly inserts whilst under there and the weather is fine! Cheers folks. B :-)
