Default Blobeye STI front top mounts

Good afternoon all,

I’ve got adjustable top mounts on my KW V3 coil overs but one of them has seized and also has a stud snapped in it so I’m just going to get a new pair.

Any recommendations on what ones to go for?

I’m not after the cheapest ones known to mankind, just want a good quality set 👍

Cheers in advance folks

Gaz.

is it worth speaking to kw and see how much they are plus you know you will have the correct part , i have swapped bc top mounts on to blitz coilover strut but it was only to test it rather than a fix 👍

Hello mate,

probably not a bad shout 👍

I don’t know what make are on there as I haven’t stripped the car down yet but they defo aren’t KW.

There seems to be a load available but a lot seem to be cheap Chinese stuff but I’m not going there, buy cheap buy twice and all that!

I’m looking at the Cusco ones as I’ve heard of Cusco before.

very mixed results on the cheap Chinese stuff on ebay etc , so you take a chance , plus how does it last , and the branding is worrying which brand are you actually buying ?? the bc ones are not a lot , i expect the kw ones would be similar priced , me kw then if they can’t help then some where else but i would wonder if it is designed for what i have if i end up with non kw mounts

There's some good top mounts with full adjustability in Canada and the US. RCE, Race comp Engineering, specialise in KW coilovers with their own springs and mounts, and Mooresport in Canada make some excellent value top mounts.

no need to go to US of A or anywhere else, people in the UK offer fully adjustable mounts in various options from stock............
