Get a new one from Pelican Parts or Auto Parts Warehouse. I had poly inserts in mine and went back to stock after a few years. Vibration is much more at idle (A/C on) with the poly. I also had the lower small poly replacement bushing destroy itself. Didn't notice this until I was putting stock one's back in but one of the bushing halves was gone and the other side was about half torn away.
