£35.75 delivered, Ph1/2. I ordered one last week, straight mount btw.

^ I bought this on Weds last week! Not received it yet, but fitted the remaining mounts this weekend. Engine now doesn't flop about. Which is nice!

 

[Sym0n]

Yeah I ordered back on the 13th and there's no sign of it yet. But their bay page does say 7-10 working days (although I'm sure I read on here that it takes over 3 weeks! ) so at the latest I'm looking at the 28th before I start asking where it is lol.

Which other mounts have you gone for? OE or uprated?

 

[James.f]

i orderd on the tuesday last week and it was here on the saturday morning

but i was abit shocked as its only 1 big purple bush and 1 small one, weres the metal bit thats suppose to come with it ? :S or is that how they come lol

 

[Sym0n]

That's how they come mate. You remove the one already on the car, struggle like f**k pushing the OE bushes out, slip the new poly ones in and refit.

Hopefully mine will turn up this week, so I can stop the f**king annoy clunk.

 

[Sargara]

If you have any luck with yours Symon do you mind giving me a hand sometime with one?

 

[Sym0n]

Aye no problem mate, only difference with yours, that I know of, is that it's a twisted mount.

 

[Sargara]

Yeah but its the same Larkspeed product (the ebay link above) it just requires fitting into a twisted mount right?

I havent bought one or anything yet its just something i have on my "to do" list at some point. But if someone nearby knows how then all the more reason to do it

 

[Sym0n]

The bushes are slightly different between the Ph1 and 2, Larkspeed will actually email you to ask you which kind you have fitted (straight or twisted) after you buy one. But from what I've seen and also read apart from the twist in the Ph2 mount it's all pretty much the same.

them mounts are so easy to fit and easy to get the oem bushes out to that clunk symon could be cuz of your gearbox mount i had it when i changed my mount it started clonking sounded horrible but all i did was loosen gearbox mount off yank engine forward then never made a noise since

[Keith185]

Just ordered some from K-tec (along with a few other bits lol)

There all pretty much the same cost everywhere; powerflex directly, larkspeed, k-tec, Kam racing . . .

lol I'll just work my way through all the mounts until it stops.

And Larkspeed must of sensed I was getting impatient as they turned up this morning.
