Missing parts is good for the motor mount

Really give it 2 stars because they screwed up doubling the packaging on one mount and missing the other. My kit included 1 rear mount, 1 driver's side, 2 transmission mounts (there should only be 1) and no front mount. I had to go to the auto parts store. Aside from being mostly incomplete like buying shoes and having 2 left in the box instead of 1 left and 1 right, the gearbox, driver's side and rear end are surprisingly good for the price. A lot of reviews that mention screw patterns don't agree, and what's wrong has me a little concerned. But buying this set for the price of a bracket from a dealer/auto parts store was worth it. Playing has somehow paid off. As I said above I was missing 1 mount when I got the ones I don't need. Installation is as quick as possible. I suggest replacing the transmission mount and driver's side first as the front mount will adjust to the height difference while the other mounts will not. For me the car was on ramps and I had 2 jacks supporting the engine. The inlet pipe must be removed to remove the transmission mount. You must remove the intake manifold to change the rear brace. The cruise control (ding) needs to be taken off to replace the driver's side bracket and you will need a 20" extension to have the bolt-on lever that attaches the front bracket to the subframe. I did everything in 3 hours. Helps to have all the right tools. Depth reach 17mm. 14mm, 12mm, 10mm. Various extensions and ratchets. I used a 1/2" 6-point impact wrench, which quickly loosened a lot of stuck screws, but it's not necessary.
