They are simple to fit, going straight in, i put a smear of grease round mine just to lube things up a bit, they feel good though, just need to do engine mounts now as i have a new knock on the exhaust which i think is being caused by the engine mounts being shot.

Alex did http://www.vwspares.co.uk/index.html not have any bushes? its where i got mine from.

Also there is a lot of info on ukmkivs about these bushes http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/t/254751.aspx
MK4 GTI T AGU, REVO Remap, BMC carbon box, Miltek cat back, Forge diverter valve, THS FR3 engine/Gbox mounts, Some random alloys, lowered on coilovers.
