Non genuine exhaust mounts

[Breamy]

Seen loads of exhaust mounts on ebay from motor factors for less than half the price of original. Anyone used these?
As the genuine ones are so rubbish are these any worse?

Iv just bought one they feel look and are cheap. But it will do the trick for a few years I'm sure.

Just get any and fill it with tiger seal.

The genuine ones are s**t, as are aftermarket ones that are cheap, but considering I got mine for two pound each I don't mind changing them every few months.

I just got a set home and they look like cheap shite! Tried taking the torx headed bolts out and all were seized, ended up snapping my tool and taking a chunk out my finger! Lol

There's a thread on here somewhere that shows how to remove the rubber from inside the rear mount and fit a powerflex or similar mount inside. The new mount's cable tied in place and doesn't look 'factory', but I did mine nearly a year ago and have had no problems since.

Get a proper socket on it instead of a torx key.

I use non genuine, but not the very cheapest ones you can buy, which are utter muck. Tried lots before I found the ones I like, which I sell at £16.50 each, so cheaper than genuine but just as good.

The £7 ones last about a week usually

Don't get the ECP ones, they suck balls!

It lasted about a week before it was sagging like the knackered one.

again, they do more than 1 type

getting the center section aligned and hung right makes a big difference too

 

[DaveDreads]

Getting the updated centre hanger is on my to do list,
tbh i'm just going to get the Prima racing one so I never have to buy another hanger ever again.

 

[Dan519]

I keep the center hangers on the shelf, you should have said you needed one when you came over

 

[DaveDreads]

Bugger!!

I bought a rear one from my local Motor Factors for about £7. It's been fine for the six months that it's been on there.
