Hello, so I have a puzzle to solve here.

On microcat, says after 1a VIN engine mount pn is KKH102720 which is

However, this part is quite expensive.

The cheaper one (less half the price) is KKH102260

The cheaper one appears to be shorter however I do believe both will fit.
Both bushes on mine are foobar, but does anyone have any idea what this different length mean and how can it affect if I put the shorter one?
 
A few mm difference in length of the tie bar the won't make any difference to the functionality of it. The shorter one will move the sump and IRD a bit closer to the subframe, but I think this was done to improve power unit stability under acceleration. You might even find that the shorter tie bar is already in there already.
 
Thank you, I will order the cheap stuff then.
Perhaps use the old one's metal bit for some poly bushes, next time when the cheap one goes to lunch.
