Google is a great asset in finding all the named parts, just do price comparisons on all the bits listed.
If you mean the bushes themselves then the list is far too complicated for me to type out but I am sure Spang will enlighten everyone

Additional foglight switch utilised for switching the amp on and off, it uses the blank space for additional accessories.

Poly Top Engine Mount... give a nice grunt indeed, its a manual so vibration is not an issue
Poly bushes fited to lower Control Arms - made it nice and tight.
Goodridge Brake Hoses
ITG Panel Filter Good but only for a short period cause it shrank
K and N cone - you can watch the feul pour out, not a good option
Paper element - best selection
KU Dump Valve - fitted for a couple of months, not that good, great sound though.
Tighten turbo bolts every service as they came loose from time to time
Samco Turbo and Coolant Hoses
Custom twin exit oval tailpipes by A44 in worcester - well done Dave

Current Volvo S60 R 2005

Body

Standard but if anyone can carry out a fist class a matching exit for the right hand side of my bumper for my duel exit exhaust then please let me know.
Pirelli origionally fitted, tire wall quite weak, the replace with GDS3 Eagles, now replaced with Eagle Assym.
