Alternator not charging battery

I recently fitted new starter as old one was dying. After I fitted starter battery light and brake light were on, I've fitted a good alternator as thought that was issue but still 12v at lead when running , It's not earthing problem so now I'm lost as to what to look at next.

Advice about front top mounts

Think my N/S/F top mount is starting to clunk so was wondering if its worth putting in adjustable top mounts instead of standard.
Is there much difference in the range apart from the price?

Re: Uberkaro seat options

Thats what I'm thinking mate but there is one where its from the top where it looks the same.
I've got a houndstooth rear seat at the minute so thinking of just getting it so its closer matched and get it retrimmed if needs be.
Worth a punt for 130 quid I suppose.
