Guys:

034 is working on "improved" factory engine and transmission mounts 
that should fall between factory and motorsport grade ( solid) 
mounts. http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=14053

They _may_ be an alternative, probably worth someone trying them out 
and reporting back.

If you decide to choose oem grade, based on my experiences, I would 
definitely chose a Boge mount over a Meyle one, even with a difference in cost.

YMMV
-Peter
