Suspension mounts

Hi All,
If you could give your opinion on the photos below of my front suspension mounts. Have the mice been helping themselves or do I need to budget for replacement.
The fund is somewhat depleted at the moment due to head gaskets and timing chains etc have been replaced last month.
If replacement is required, what kind of money do I need budget for.
Regards,
Michael.

They certainly look past their best. New top mounts are approx £190 each from Jaguar. Notionally, the task should take about an hour's labour plus any time for any recalcitrant fixings etc. Mike.

Thanks Mike.
Are the non-Jaguar alternatives any good? They seem to be averaging at around £70-80 each.

Michael.

Hi Michael,
I have no personal experience of the alternatives. Others might be better placed to comment. I would certainly be tempted to try the Barratt's alternative at that price differential. Mike.
