Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?

landrover mounts are used by many other groups for a upgrade as they are much tougher, and they are very cheap aswell, worth a look

That may be the ones he is referring to, but they are only 37mm, when standard is 50mm, if someone could measure a new engine mount to confirm please!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you get any more noise/vibration using the landy mounts?

Use rally/racing mounts from Volvo 240 . Just the right ones (2x). A common trick in swedish E30 community

hey folks, ive just fitted standard components just now. I know they'll tear into shreds but at least the lump is in. I'll hunt the volvo items and get them on order for the garenteed failure of these ones. Cheers.

Try Ford Escort RS2000 engine mounts, they are solid rubber and within a mm pf the standard set up, available from Burtons and very reasonable.
