Rear suspension

quick one guys - just buying some new front top mounts and got me thinking... What is the equivalent for the rear? Do they have top mounts too or something else?

Thanks

Dinan in the States do an alternative rear top mount that some in the US seem to like:

Yes there are rear top mounts. A lot smaller than the fronts and generally not too much of an issue unless they are knackered as they are a lot easier to change if required. Not too expensive so could change them if you wanted to be sure.

Cheers mate - thought I might as well get them done. Don't suppose you know the part number by any chance? Tried looking on realoem but couldn't find anything that looked like at top mount on the rear suspension just something called a spring pad

They're usually called guide supports.

Actually looking at realoem it's a slightly different setup.

E92 realoem rear setup

5, 6 and 7 kind of make up the top mount.
