i would expect the mounts woukd have to be hks ones , so i would contact them
direct , i would not expect them to be bigger , you could try the standard mount there are two different types and don't know if they would fit , the top 3 bolt holes on the two different original subaru mounts are the same the spring mounting side of them are different

I don't think you get what I'm saying you can see from under your bonnet if you have hard top mounts or the genuine ones if genuine you can replace no problems hard tops slap about a lot to suppose to be common my teins did it and there was nothing wrong with them at all

Yes you can see the black rubber on top or metal if solid mounts if solid you can opt for the whiteline kit available if it mates to the hks units
