Bilstein B12

im in the process of fitting the B12 kit, reading threads on here it would appear that I would be best to change the top mounts (for RS3 mounts). What else would anyone advise that I change at this stage. Don't know if it helps the cars done 50k and it a tdi quattro. Cheers

Top mounts and the bearings too

And sorry if you already know but four wheel geometry setup afterwards

Cheers for that I thought I might have to have the geo done. Am I right I thinking I need the rs3 bearings?

I'm sorry I don't know in that much detail. There was a post I recall seeing recently where someone said use RS3 top mounts and SRF or SKR or SRK bearing. To the best of my knowledge that means the normal bearing for your car but in that particular brand

As above I've got a full set of SKF top mounts which I got from euro car parts. They are exactly the same part as one, you can see where the VAG logo had been grinded off! They were about half the price though.
Can't comment on whether rs3 are different unfortunately

Use SKF bearings, although the the RS3/TTRS top mounts use the identical bearings as the standard A3.
