Recently been getting annoyed with the bouncy ride in my 2001 Cooper with chili pack. Now i understand that back then SS+ came with the chili pack, and that the early suspension was the roughest of the lot.
Also to change the suspension the early cars have different top mounts which would need to be changed for the later type mounts that came out with the cooper s, however a recall was also put out and looking at the below pictures i think my top mounts may have been swapped to the later type. Im hoping to go down the koni FSD route.

Later car
Now ive been and took some pics of my cars top mount it looks more like the later cars picture but without the plastic cover.
Does anyone else agree with that? Can i ask someone with a later car to have a look at theirs to see if its the same design as what ive got on my car.
