[s-cars] Motor and trans mounts

[Peter Schulz]

Ron:

034 transmission mounts at $45 and engine mounts at $68 are very competitive priced compared to the oem Boge mounts.

If you are ultimately concerned about quality, even new OEM is going to be much better than a worn 150k mile oem.
I've installed the street density engine and transmission mounts in my wife's car which amongst other things cured a persistent issue with exhaust movement.

Be wary of the aftermarket FEQ or Meyle mount...or some of the new creative German-sounding companies that aren't.
At a point you DO get what you pay for.
