Alloy Subframe Mounts

[Alistair E]

Not the best afternoon to have a go at changing the subframe mounts, just a bit wet.
Got the subframe off the car. Bit of a pain trying to wriggle around the exhaust. Now I just need to get the old bushes out. Is there a special tool for this or has anybody got any suggestions. Be nice to have some help tonight as I'm going to try and get it finished tomorrow. If it is a special tool, does anyone have a picture of it.

Thanks

Alistair

Here's a pic of the genuine tool for the job. Tom (Audiman) has mine at the moment.

ben, is there any left? as i would like a set.

I still have some set left over of these.

Could do with shifting them as the other half is moaning about my bits again (oh er missus).

If anyone wants some PM me with your chassis number. First come first served on the remaining sets.

Hold on is it M12 on the front subframe?

What are you guys' impression on these alloy subframes now that they are fitted?

Depends what you want, marginally better handling, or comfort.
I had mine removed as I like my own teeth and I never asked for them to be fitted anyway.

Mine weren't Ben's though but at the end of the day, an alloy mount is an alloy mount.
Got to be a bit of give somewhere.

Just my thoughts as you asked for opinions
