i haven't found reinforced replacements for the open donut hangers used
rearmost on my tqw, but i have replaced the other hangers as well as those
on my jetta with bicycle-chain-reinforced units that i purchased from
techtonics tuning (a vw tuner) in oregon for about $6 apiece.
the ones in my jetta have lasted for years, and there is one that usually
broke at least once a year with the non-reinforced units.
(and half the jettas on the road have the familiar muffler tilt from this
broken hanger...)
