It may be very bumpy with these,
Why not go for the R32 dogbone mount, TT wishbone bushes and either Fabia vRS or Leon Cupra R rear axel bushes  :smiley:

from what i've heard the polybushes are very very harsh, almost like having a solid joint, where as the audi / skoda ones don't have the voids in the bushes so they don't have as much lateral movement but aren't as harsh as the polybushes.

don't polybush the dog bone mount - i tried it on mine and the extra vibration and rattling caused was unbearable! Lasted a month before swapping it for the R32 mount
