Can i ask what issues you were having (i.e- noises, steering faults) that pointed you to replace the top mounts?

Mine came from grinding, metallic noises from the front as we travelled. Pinned down where noise came from by spraying silicone lubricant on each bush in turn. Garage told me it was from the wishbone. Glad I checked before ordering parts.

It rattled like a mo-fo over bumps but it was uber knackered. I think I need to do the other side as well tbh as it is a little rattly still. I can feel it through the pedals, no where near as bad though.

The other big give away for that one was when I pushed down on the wing the large top washer would raise, so the spring was compressing but the shock wasnt.
