Posted: Mon Oct 27, 2014 12:46 amNew mounts are rather rare and over a hundred quid !!!!
So until i get round to fabricating a new one I've bodged it by jacking it up and trashing a piece of hard 8mm thick rubber that's super glued to a piece of 3mm ally filed to a taper into the void, hopefully it will hold out.
Actually on some forums I've read regarding this recently this would be considered an upgrade?

That should be the one, I've used this supplier before and they are good, but call them first and just confirm it's the upper mount.
