iirc all you do is fill the gaps in the mounts with tigerseal - seems a little bodgey to me though..
Chris Astley has got them on for 145 - might get some of those..

Does Chris do just the solid alloy ones or rubber type ones too?

I got a set of unused TAS ones last year. Quite chuffed with that little find!

Ah I see, billet with soft centres. At first glance they look solid (me lazy).

Some people fit them at staggered intervals to soften them rather than all 3 at once.

If you assemble all mounts & bolts loosely, then offer up to the car it should all line up nicely before torquing it all up.

So is it worth fitting them staggered then? Or just slap all 3 in at once?

Staggered. No doubt I'll get shot down for talking nonsense but I've read it in an article about Brett Warburtons old XE beast.

Makes sense IMO.
