that's very expensive.  go with TPC.. been doing business with them for years
and never ONCE has rod messed up an order.

yes.  The type 44 turbo (and maybe NA as well?) mounts are hydraulic.  Ask
for mounts for an 87 5000 turbo quattro.  I know for sure those are fluid
filled... I'm sure many others are as well.

You could try blaufergnugen as well.. http://www.audiquattroparts.com however
I can't say the same thing about "always getting the order right" about them.
 To make matters worse, just a few days ago I called to order a reman rear
brake caliper from them and was put in an annoying hold system where you have
to keep pressing a damn button to stay on hold (!!!).  No sale... I hung up
and called my man chris semple at force5 auto (http://www.force5auto.com).
Also another guy that always gets the order right and he's more local to me
(NH).
