[Mk2] [NA] Where can I buy topmounts from?

Post by Ry_B »

Fensport have been out of stock for the last 8 weeks ](*,) anyway given up on that now, where else can I get them from? I can't find any sites from googling etc.

i got some tyres from camskill earlier and noticed they sold top mounts, no idea about how competitive the price was or if they were in stock but probably worth a look...

Wait for fensport mate. The TRDs are worth it. I put them on with tein s-techs and yellow billies and was worried about the ride on our UK roads but the ride is great. Big shocks from potholes and the like are absorbed really well. Its a lot firmer than standard but I think the topmounts make a real contribution to keeping it liveable. That said my old ones were completely shot.

Mr T is your local Toyota dealership.

Not cheap though, I got prices a few weeks ago, they're £76 + VAT EACH for the fronts, and £62 + VAT EACH for the rears (although the mark up varies from dealer to dealer).

Possibly, although you'd most likely have to supply them with part numbers. Not sure what the price would be though can imagine they'd be even more expensive than the normal ones.

I'll have a look and see if I have pt nos for mine on my fensport invoice. £42 each inc VAT & members discount I think I paid. Trouble is there are 2 pt numbers for the fronts since there are different mounts for different revs.

I emailed them, they told me mid-January too. They did say that they could air-freight a pair over for an extra £25+VAT though. Still cheaper than Mr T's ordinary ones.

I should check to see if they'll lower the air price per pair if they get a few pairs - if anyone is interested?

Sorry man, I left it with the wife to order them and check how much the air-mail would be for two pairs - but she forgot to ask!!

Thing is, even if it'd worked out £15 cheaper, I'd still have to post them to whoever is interested, so not much of a saving at all really by doing a mini-group buy.

For anyone that's interested in purchasing these from Fensport with the air-mail, estimated delivery time is 10 days.
