Thanks!

Don't think I've ever changed the subframe mountings before.

Fairly easy job to do, as you can lower the subframe down on a jack without removing it completely.

OEM vRS bushes are one bush per side, but if you use the uprated bushes from a Seat Leon Cupra R they are in two halves each side which make refitting them a piece of p!$$.

When I changed mine last summer I fitted the uprated ones as I had some lying around, however the original ones I took out were still in excellent condition and to be honest didn't really need replacing (9 years old!).

You will also need a full wheel alignment afterwards too.
