Hey,

Bottom engine mounts can be bought new thru repco, bursons & so on, top mount is from Suzuki only afaik.

Rear mount looks a lot like the side mounts, but carries a different part number, I wonder if a side mount could be used in it's place?

Cheers

You can use a bottom mount in place of a rear lower mount, but it tilts the engine forward about 10mm. Not an issue unless you have clearance issues (turbo manifold, etc).

I'm yet to find anyone that sells genuine or aftermarket rear lower mounts.

Yeah good luck with that. Window glass doesn't pop up often.
Have you tried Suzuki genuine?

Might also be worth giving Import Monster a shot.

Bought one from Suzuki not long ago. Have not actually measured it against the side mounts, but the suzuki bag carried a different part number & it looked almost the same, but not quite lol.

To get a window from Suzuki I have been quoted $280 and I refuse to pay that much money for a little piece of glass.

Sometimes that's the price you have to pay for owning a unique car.
