Intercooler rubber bushes

Hi there can any body tell me if you can buy the rubber mounting bushes for the intercooler as mine are shot and the cooler is rattling about, probably only a main dealer part i would expect which will be exspensive again no dowt.
Cheers

I've got a scrap intercooler outside, just looked and the bushes aren't much good on that, otherwise you could have had them - sorry!

I know this is an old post but I have just had the same problem, the noise from the intercooler was very annoying between 2000 and 2500 RPM. I thought my gearbox bearings had gone again after only 5 weeks but after turning the remains of the bushes 180° so they trapped the intercooler mounting noise is cured in the short term.
New bushes (grommets) ordered form dealer they will be a silly price but cheaper than pulling the gearbox again.
