I bought a couple of "spare" pairs of the oversized round ones from
Cambridge. With shipping, they ended up being about $100 a
pair. Yikes. I thought I had a broken motor mount but was
wrong. I've had a pair of them in my car for 3 1/2 years with nary a
problem. I hit the same pothole.
Pretty pricey compared to the Moss / BPNW ones, but replacing them sucks.
That said, the "little" round ones from Moss / BPNW have lasted us
much longer than 4 races. I have no experience with the square ones.
