Can anybody recommend a manufacturer or motor factor to buy from? And before anyone suggests, I don't want solid mounts as I want to keep the cabin quiet.
Thanks

Peugeot are now asking £95 EACH for the rear beam front bushes. My question is this, is there any company that makes a stiff or good quality bush suitable for a GTI6? Most manufacturers just make one bush for every 306, which will no doubt be more flexible than the GTI6 bush.Can anybody recommend a manufacturer or motor factor to buy from? And before anyone suggests, I don't want solid mounts as I want to keep the cabin quiet. Thanks |

306 ones aren't quite all the same, there are two part numbers for the front pair.given that they tend to last 10 years plus, the price isn't that bad really. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Yeah the standard ones are about £65 each but are supposed to be flexier than the GTI6 versions. They may last 10 years, but £200 is a fifth of the value of the car!Has anybody had experience with the Lemforder bushes? I think thats looking like the only alternative for me, £80 is a bit easier to justify. |
