After removing front bumper to fit our new fog lights ,inspected the area behind . SHOCK! Front sub-frame mounts just held together with flaking rust holding onto the bolts! Quality of these must have been very poor , as the car is MY2005. Recommend people check for these on all their TF's. Worst case of rust I've seen in 40 years of owning cars. New plated mounts on order c/w new nuts & bolts , will fit during week.

I was told to fill the new mounts with a thick grease to help stop the water getting in.. haven't actually got around to that yet but it's on the long 'to do' list
