No no I ment from the makers of the bush,they must have fitted it to see what it was like.
I have a old alu bracket and might try ( buy ) one if the noise level is not changed to much.

Lee has it on his, and prefers it to the yellow poly mount, a lot less vibration but still has a bit of grunt to it.

I know the round bush kit has been around for a long time,I changed the one on my motor for a volvo one again as there was not a poly one that fitted as its the square type mount.

I like the idea of this poly mount as it looks like it would fit better and work better than the yellow round type, which after about 6 months starts to chew itself up and tear. Looks good too!
i may consider getting one. I take it you have to cut out your oe black bush to fit? Or do they supply the bracket? Never tried removing black square bush so i wouldn't know.

Looking at Wobblys square rubber bush it is held in with 2 large plates i cant see it needing a lot of work to get it out if they think that is needed to keep it in place

On my old mount bush it just fell it bits when I renewed it,still have the old alu bracket so might give one of them a go when I hear a bit of feed back.

it should have a plastic sleeve inside the bracket that was attached to the rubber...I have just removed the rubber remains from my old one.
