Harry Hockly ones iirc but you need deep pockets 
Stickkaflex
Sitting in a car rattling its tits off no fanx
Id rather that then keep breaking them though... The engine moves way to much
They do make a noticeable difference. You used to be able to see mine try and climb out of the bay on the rolling road. It does make a difference to the handleling when you chuck it into the corners as you havent got 200 odd kgs wobbeling backwards and forwards all over the place.
But as radd says you sit in traffic and feel your feet buzzing lol.
Worth it imo though.

Have you fitted a saab rear mount? Mine moves quite abit and i think its because ive tiger sealed both front ones and the saab on is old
Yes, theres a turkish seller on ebay who has all three mounts listed but they are £75 each plus postage...

adz, I 'tigersealed' my mount and at a rolling road day, someone asked it I had uprated mounts! engine hardly moves at all!
get urself to a back street tyre place and ask for the bit of rubber they cut of old tyre valves, put them in the gaps, seal over the top, ALOT of seal. let them dry, job done!

I need to do this also. Ill probably use cut rubbers from exhaust fixings into the gaps before stickaflexing.
I did see a thread once of a chap who bought some [FONT=arial, sans-serif]polyurethane in liquid form. You mix two liquids together and pour it in the gaps, he selaed the one side first of course. Dont know how well it did. Link below if any one can shed any light. Ill probably go for the first method if it seems to be working.
