added into original post with an ETKA screenshot also

thanks mate!
i have since bought a pair of rear mounts without the 'B' but I'm not sure if the stock top cover on my ride will fit. Mine is a 2011 1.2 TSI.

To be honest, just smash the thing on and im sure it will be fine I just ordered both as i was sick and tired of hearing it. Report back to the thread if you can get it to fit because as i say, this should be come the definitive thread for this issue as there is not a lot of info out there on the web for this issue with the 6r's (or any others for that matter.. or at least i couldnt find it)

route... do you mind posting what you paid for the set of mounts?

VW Polo 6R Rear TOP Shock Mounts 6R0 513 535 | eBay

is an auction for a set of updated mounts. for $50 if it were me, I would just buy a new set but if you're on a budget... grab them

alright, the rear mounts that came with my car is the one with a "B". However the top cap is the smooth one and fits my new rear mount. Got the rear mounts changed and somehow the rattling behind became louder.
