    Has anyone used Prothane bushes? Am considering getting a set for the front wishbones on my mk2 jetta, but didnt know if its worth paying the extra to get Powerflexes, which are almost twice the price. Cheers!!

    I didn't think so. I have Prothane, quality in the moulding isn't as good as the ppwerflex ones I have seen, but on the whole they are good and nice and firm.
    I have a full set. You could buy a Gti for the price you would pay for powerflex.....come to think of it I did!

    i need new rear ones on my mkIII vr6 a.s.a.p...which shall i get? i'm gonna fit them myself, so want them to be two piece ones. powerflex want about 45 for the pair, but if you can suggest ones that are as good for less money it'd be good.

    teh bugpack rear ones are inserts for the standard rear bushes

    check GVK's site, link for a rally parts shop that do good rear ones cheaper than standard ones
