Not worth the money

This product fell flat for me. The pros are that it is easy to install. However, the cons are numerous. It didn't improve my car's performance at all and even caused some rattling. The quality seems subpar and I wouldn't trust it for use in automotive applications. Save your money and invest in a better product.

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • Pricier than some other strut mounts on the market

kyb top mount fits replacement parts

I needed top mounts for a complete restoration of a 200 VW Beetle. All struts and shock absorbers have been replaced with kyb products, all of excellent quality. I now have a new 2000 Beetle tdi with kyb chassis and fresh paintwork.

Pros
  • shock absorbers, struts and suspension
Cons
  • #

Note the vague description of the package.

When purchased, there was a photo with two fasteners in one package, which is indicated when purchased. But only one mount came (Who changed a mount or rack?) I felt like I was deceived and confused with this purchase. There should be a clearer description of the product. I did not find in the description how many mounts are in the package.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Damaged
