did buy mine a few years ago wouldnt have thought they gone up that much.

Good luck and make sure you jack up the gearbox to take the weight when taking off mount.

Yeah one bolt.

Think you got to remove bracket as there is not much clearance.

Was about 2 years ago since i last did it.. :smiley:

Mind u don't shear the bolt. No probs if your replacing the mount but I had to get the bolt from the vw dealer. A whopping 2 quid but the wait was a pain
