Nah you want the liquid stuff mate.

it's in an ergenomically desgined bottle. and has a little cap on the top that had the built in applicator. that's the one you want.

Meh..I'm gonna bump this up to the top cos there's little to nothing happening in the mk3 section atm

lol..

So, Tim is bringing me some stage 1 engine mounts on friday, and seeing as I have a shocking engine mount problem at the moment (you really don't want to know) they'll be put in ASAP! I've got to juggle the possibility of seeing you lot over the weekend, having my gf's birthday dinner+party+another dinner AND try and do engine mounts...cos I'm working full time now.

Hopefully my car will be repaired and back on the road in the next month, and then I'll get it fully detailed and everything will be up to scratch

. Watch this space!!

trust me stage 0.5 is enuffffff! gearbox is heaps easy rear and front ones are ok just need to jack the engine up a tad, few screws and bolts, pull out the old in with the new!

**Mrk_Mickey** · 21-05-2009, 10:39 PM

Haha Dom I'm going stage 1 cos it's cheaper atm and cos Tim has no 0.5's in stock. Dammit I wish you weren't working...you reckon I can do it on my own or should I have someone there to help?

You don't wanna know about my engine clunks lol...you seriously don't wanna know about my front mount which apparently is too good for a top bolt.

I've got a pretty good instruction print-out for blackforest ones, tim assures me it's the same method for the BFI mounts

here's hoping it's not impossible to do on my own!

For your sake, Joe
