Default Shock mounts needed for RS2

I currently have H&R suspension on the RS2 and I need to change the shock mounts as they are past best and need replacing.
What are the best options and where can I get them from??

Hi Coxy. I assume you are talking top mounts?? If so...

Genuine Originals without any hestitation. Im not sure if they are the same as the S2, I would imagine they are.

I fitted original Greens to mine and they are by far the best. Pleeeese dont go down the solid top mount route, they are rubber for a reason.....to allow us to keep our teeth over the bumpy bits!!

The fact that you have H & R shocks / springs has no bearing on top mounts unless you have alloy ones......which you ain't if I remember. Give Pete Reeve a call, he'll sort you out with a set.
