Thumbs up susp bushing problem

Hi all,
during my winter projects,
installing the pss10 on my '97 C4S,I discovered this worn rear susp bushing.
Un-luckly this part need to be re-used in the Bilstein kit.
They are unbelievably expanive(like 200$ each the rear,and hope the front will be in good shape,because they'll be even more expansive)
Anyway I was thinking about the course of action.
The sway bar bushing is already replaced.
1 New rubber bushes and a lot of cash less?
2 use this fooked(I don't track my Cozza)because is not a big issue?
3 find a good used and install them(any of you have'em?)
4 go the RS way….but I think it would be to stiff to me

any advise or help is very very appreciated

another thing I forgot to ask you….

The PSS10 springs sit right on the alluminium cup,no rubber or teflon in between….

could it lead to a noise issue(metal to metal noise)

pic attached

Ciao forza,
The rear mount is broken in the picture, you should change it to NEW not used.
If you want, there is a shop in europe selling them at 96.32 euros each, instead of 180
If you want I could send you the web link.
You should mount new, because you are doing an alignment after etc etc.


As for second picture, yes this is good, here is the PSS10 mounting instructions

The rear top mounts have been superceeded to 99333305901 and unless someone has very, very old stock they wont be 96 euros, (they were 96 euros when they were 99333305900 but this number changed early last year

Changing for used mounts is of course pointless, can you advise of a link to the shop that still lists the 00 mounts please George?

Coccobet and Pervy, I ordered a set to mothball right after I posted the link.
Cherry on the cake, I received the 99333305901 's for 96.32 euros/each and date of manufacture is 26-11-2012, so if you ordered
this is what you will receive.
