Well, a rule of thumb for me is anything that is not a 15 minute job or less to complete, should never have non-volvo OE parts used for it. I just got done replacing my rear main seal, and noticed that scan tech sells one for 1/4 the price... wouldn't you be afraid of using something less then OE when replacing something that takes about 2 hrs to get to in the first place?

I would have to say replace your mount with a good company. SKF is pretty damned good. MTC and Scantech tend to be POS's. www.eeuroparts.com sells the SKF upper strut mount for 46 dollars, can't beat that ;)

I know buy EVERYTHING from eeuroparts.com.. they tended to have the best stuff for my recent repair job, and best of all.. they have a good variety of items, and MANY OE volvo parts for sale, at a little above scan tech prices.
