Has anyone changed them and took pics? I'm wondering how many boxes of band aids I should buy before I start.

Im going to do mine on my 98 v70 this week as soon as the parts come in. I'm considering getting some of those fancy "mechanic" gloves that I always see at Auto-zone.

I may have some pictures up in the next week. It all depends on when my Pony Express shipment comes in from myvolvopartsonline - that I asked to be overnighted last Wednesday - come in. The rear mount is a bearcat from what I have seen. I bought a replacement from FCP and I have not yet installed it after the mounting bolt sheared. Hmmm..., the FCP parts are here and nearly a week later the the other parts aren't. Rental Kia's suck and this is killing my business since I am trying to schedule around car repair time and jobs that are hundreds of miles away.

I'm going to order the lower parts kit from FCP for one hundred. Thanks for the tip on that website, as I live in NH, my parts are waiting at my doorstep the next day. Thats with standard UPS ground.
