UrQ Upper Strut Mount vs. Stock 4000/CGT

As mentioned previously, it's time for new upper strut mounts for my 87.5 CGT. So, I have to decide which ones to get. UrQ Upper Strut Mounts, 857 412 323 B, are $30.60 each. Stock CGT mounts, 8A0 412 323 D, are $18.60. So the UrQ mounts are almost twice the price. Anybody care to comment on whether they are worth the aditional cost? I like the idea that they would SLIGHTLY lower the front end, but if they die just as fast as the stock mounts, it isn't worth the coist for 1/4-1/2" of lowering IMHO. Alsao, anybody care to comment on the pricing I'm getting? Decent? Ripoff? Also, if you were a good and fair mechanic, how many hours of labor would you charge me to change out the mounts if I supplied the parts?

TIA,
