ford mounts are about £90 with the vat, better to get an uprated set though.

A lot of people recon Vibratechnics ones are too harsh and transmitt a lot of noise and vibration, give matt Lewis a bell on 07910 818 110, he sells collins ones for around 110 quid which are meant to be much better

They are harsh & you do get a vibration through the car but it adds to the sporty feel. Lol.

why suffer when you can get the same job done, and cheaper, but keep the car nice to drive

The Colin's ones must have more rubber I guess. When I was looking people said they were just the same.Oh well.

The Ford ones are filled with oil to prevent vibration - i think thats what makes them weak tbh
