    What do you have to lose since the originals failed in under 2 years anyway? Would it still be under warranty if an original replacement set set failed again at 2 years? If not, Id use the ones you are displaying. If they by chance are actually Hill Engineering parts then no question which ones to use.

    I bought the car not knowing the engine mounts were done recently, when I put in to be serviced new garage they noted them , I rang the previous garage ( Ferrari ) was within 1 years ( they agreed and replaced free) this year same thing frame 11 months starting to fail , but your say they should be covered for 2 years? And who’s hill’s engineers? They good or bad ?

    Just replaced mine with aftermarket parts from AW Italian Parts. I bet they are just generic aftermarket ones. Seem to do the job and can't be any worse quality than OEM.

    Hill engineering produces some very high quality parts for our cars, they are almost always better than OEM parts.

    The mounts fit but I don't think they are OEM, even though the picture and part number are OEM. I didn't take a picture of the mounts, but they did NOT have Ferrari logos like the ones on their website picture. They fit, and they can't be any worse than OEM.

    With AW you're never sure. I returned my entire last order because they were generic aftermarket parts, even though part numbers were Ferrari numbers. They just slapped their own label with a Ferrari part number on top of them and sell at 8x markup.

    Yes, used the aftermarket ones. They fit fine and like I said, can't be any worse than OEM.

    Had them on for about 2000 miles and 3 months. So far no complaints. Next time I would buy elsewhere though, I don't like the practice of showing OEM pictures and part numbers yet sending aftermarket parts. That's pretty deceptive if you ask me.

    You can find same mounts a lot cheaper from other sources.

    Ok I see yes agree . Their price seems to be much higher than an other aftermarket and to my gathered information they all don’t have oil in them and seem to have the same markings on them … note the Ferrari horse looks like he’s had a stroke !!!! Here your one and pics of mine . But maybe the gen with oil in them is the issue … only time will tell plz keep us posted on your thoughts:)

    When it comes to Ferrari parts, I'm telling you after 20+ years doing this, the only safe bet is : TRUST, BUT VERIFY

    The part they sent had no logos at all. As generic aftermarket as they get.
