Default replacing engine mounts on 00 tt 180 fwd

I am replacing the engine mounts on my 00 tt. I figure if I change one I might as well do all. What mounts do I need What are the best recomendations for purchasing.

Other than the polyurethane replacement bushings for the "dogbone" or pendulum mount that connects the transmission to the frame (can also replace the whole mount with a solid unit), I'm not aware of other aftermarket "upgrade" mounts. Would suggest you use OEM.

VF engineering? I think the benifits would pay off, have the dogbone and love it.

Default indeed! >

ECS has a set of the other two along with the dogbone in the $550 range, and that's what I've never read anything good about.

Default I did! >

You makes a majority of one! Seriously, I've been thinking of them myself, but worth noting - though I'm really not convinced it's a problem - that I do have a kmd crank pulley.
