Cheap quality exhaust mounts

[Gandi69]

Just looked my exhaust mounts as my pipes are sitting wonky again. Seems the rubber has stretched and deformed in about 1500 miles? Are there knock off mounts kicking about on the internet?

They're s**t from new.

Pack them out, plenty of guides thread on here about it.

cables ties and bodge fixings FTW.

Tried the cable tie fix, didnt work for me. I'm going to pack out the old mounts with some silicone type stuff in a bit. Really poor design these

would be easier to change it for a new unit, no that expensive to be honest

Even new ones are crap.

Only option is those £60 each ones, but not paying that much, my bodge job is lasting well.

Think I'll be filling mine with sealant when I can be bothered..... All my bodges so far have not worked all that well

find some old sockets and cable tie them into the rubber mounts, should provide a decent fix tbh!

they fall away from the mount but that my be my cable ties being too small. Ive filled my old mounts (as the new ones are on the car) with silicone now. Gonna try them tomorrow

Going to re-align this pipes tonight using my new bodge mounts. Pipes look like they are drunk at the moment

Right all done, and did an interior clean too. Does anyone else find that their exhaust moves about when it gets hot? I've found mine will shift towards the offside slightly so its not in line with the bumper holes any more. Going to see tomorrow morning what its like after a drive.
