The Bilstein front top mount with bearing 12-273096 is an OEM replacement top mount and bearing kit from Bilstein's B1 series for the MQB platform. It is sold as a single mount for one front suspension strut. The front top mount is one of the most frequently replaced items alongside a shock absorber, so it is worth updating it when you replace the damper, especially if the old one is original or deteriorating.
