Not the mounts themselves, but bolts are recommended.

you only renew them if you take the mounts off??

Nope...as many people have found out the hard way.

TPS rep came sometime this week, Tuesday I do believe. He said the tolerence between cheap and OE parts is about 15% on pads and can be up to 50% on cambelt kits.

Deffo OE.
