have them on mine. theyre pretty good. eliminate a fair bit of engine movement. for the front gearbox mount, you have to cut a bit of metal out to make it fit.

I'm sure DaveB has some pics in his progress thread on Mig about the bit you need to cut out, was reading it the other day.

lol, not really. I had to re-adjust my linkage because the engine had moved; due to one of my 'normal' mounts being broken. lol

IMO, solids are fecking awesome. Tiger sealing 'normal ones' just isn't the same.

i had a 2p vibrate its way across my dash then disappear down an air vent. still havent found it yet. solid mounts are great though. took a hell of a lot of the engine movement up in my car.
