so i bought a poly urethane kit and it only came with the inserts.so i guess u use your stock mounts?is it hard to get the urethane inserts in?

You need a shop press to press out your old rubber ones. Take it to most any shop and they can do it for you.

You got ones like these right?

Isnt that picture of 2 different kits? The bottom pieces are just inserts that go into the stock mounts and dont require a machine shop, while the top ones completely replace the mounts and do require a machine shop.

This is the insert kit

But I wonder if some places put together that rear motor mount with the kit as well. Like a custom kit.....I don't know.

The top two are for the driver and passenger side mounts while the bottom two are for the front and rear mounts.

Exactly. That is the same kit My 92 tsi has in it, same setup.

Hmm I didn't know they were making a kit like that. I find it kind of odd that the side ones come with complete replacements while the front and back come with inserts.

Me too; but that's just how Prothane makes them I guess.

I think they are probably taking driveability and ride comfort into play alot more than anyone looking for that type of mod would care about.

I have the front and rears from a car i bought but the guy didnt install the washers that go on each side. I would like to find the sides sold separately.

The front and rear dont need to be full replacements because of the amount of vibration they create. The inserts alone are very noticable. For those of you that have the inserts, could you imagine more vibration? Thats the only reason i can see why they sell the inserts and not the full replacements.
