Strut top mount replacement?

[HPmuirt]

You get a guide that you hold up in the tower and drill four holes for the allen bolts that go through to hold the solid strut mounts. Its actually very easy and so far they are working great, there is a little more road noise with them though. In this picture you can see on the mounts where the four allen bots go in after drilling.

Ahh, cheers Elijah

I still cannot decide what type to use. So far I could have: -

normal stock(best ride, prolly least road feel - shortest life)
uprated stock (slightly harsher ride, more road feel - equally shortest life)
Meyle stock (1 user rated as best of stock for feel - equally shortest life)
Mance mounts (harsh ride, best road feel but noisy- longest life)
QRS mounts (harsh ride, best road feel but noisy - longest life)

Basically I cannot decide, but since my S2 is a daily driver for now, I think the Meyle mounts may win. Once the car is no longer the daily driver, then I might consider the harsher, noisy solid mounts for the best feel.

Wayya fink?
