Thanks! I had the poly inserts and solid poly front/rear mounts in my Cabby, when I did the ABA OBD1 conversion.. That totally sucked. I replaced them in a week with diesel mounts.. In our first GLI 16v, I had the solid rubber front mount and it was nice, but I've seen these solid ones a lot lately.. Some say they aren't bad at all. I say, those people are numb!

I had the solid poly mounts in my 16V Scirocco. I took them out, the vibration was terrible. In my 92 Jetta GL I used the older style solid, non-hydro, mount. It was fine.

Who: Ricky Where: Winchester, Virginia What: 1990.5 GLi 2,0L 16v, 66,000 original miles Why: Cuz we all need help, sometimes I'm 38, married, two kids, and I am an old hand with VWs.. Those on the 'Vortex may know me as qwikxr.. VW History: 40+ VW Beetles (oldest was '53 RHD, 1300kms), 10-12 Mk1 GTis (one Oettinger powered), 4 Mk2 8vs, 2 16v 2.0L GLi's, 2 Corrado G60's (one Stg3), one Passat VR6, 2 Caddys (converted one to 16v from diesel), one Cabriolet (converted to full OBD1 2,0L ABA) and the list goes on. So, now that the B.S. is over, I've got a question.. Who runs a solid front motormount? How asinine is it? Is the vibration inside the car really bad? I'm contemplating getting one, as the hydro unit is dead..
