20VT engine mount........ - 31/10/2021 17:19

Guys,
I'm struggling to find a new, preferably original RH engine mount, the one on the alloy bracket that holds the A/c compressor, alternator, PAS pump and idler wheel for the aux belt.
The original part no° is 46464666

I've found a replacement but it's £20 postage and I don't know what the quality is like https://www.xbredylab.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=108915

Does anyone know where I can get one or a good quality replacement.

Thanks in advance
Rob

Not original but I’ve got one of these fitted

Easy to fit, probably out last the car as well

Thanks Adam,

How is it? Is it harsh or not noticeable due to it being stiffer than the original.....

Thanks

I’ve not actually noticed due to the fact the original one was in such a poor state so I have no real point of reference

I may be paranoid here but I’m sure the engine became a little more ‘whiney’ since having it fitted. I removed both aux belts and the noise remained, even did the cambelt and water pump but the whine remained so can only assume it was the mount

Humm
OK thanks for that.
May have to look another sort unless anyone else has any input thumb
