Can anyone recommend a supplier for S3 engine mounts as during the course of replacing the clutch slave cylinder I noticed that the sump is resting on the ARB! Fortunately not driving the car much and heading back offshore on Monday but a task for my next time home.

Previous PH Threads ( http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... ) seem to indicate that these work?

I've used the RallyDesign ones and they are as good as you'd expect for £6, will last a for a year or two until they sag!

That's an old thread you've "dug up", been a few more since then.

Take a look at Burton part No. FP292C and FP292.

The actual mounts are probably no different (from the same source?) but I'm hoping the support cups will prolong their life a bit?

Same on mine, especially the LH mount. Did you actually fit/try the cups ? good find anyhow !

I've bought these for the S1:

ebay link

Looked identical to what came off, to be honest! The original's weren't sagging, but I changed them because they're such a PITA to do in situ!

Are they stainless?
Did I buy them?
