Besides getting reamed for a Mercedes mount, are there any other options I may have missed?
OR - if I had to choose one of these, which one should I pick? I don't mind having to change them every few years, Just trying to make it roadworthy

My sdl was vibrating....not shaking...but an in your bones vibration...so this time I ordered Phoenix from this site and received Lemforder which was ok cause I read they are the same just re-boxed with labels ground down.
Actually when I had the Karlyns installed I immediately noticed in the seat vibration and figured there was just more to attend to i.e. injectors, etc.
Yesterday I installed the Lemforders and vibration is gone. Smooth.
Moral to the story....there seems to be a difference in the materials used (rubber). Karlyn trans mount also tore some 5k after replacement. Replaced with Lemforder and its still holding strong.
Anyway check out the attached photo. Karlyn on the left. Lemforder on the right. Both driver and passenger sides were collapsed and not due to oil contamination.
When it comes to rubber bits some of these aftermarket goods appear to be simply false economy.
