Default where to buy motor mounts?

My front "dog bone" mount is bad. I found good used ones on ebay for 30 shipped. New from Honda is $90 and aftermarket from napa is $42. I've heard some aftermarket mounts are way too stiff. Would the napa ones be too stiff? Iim worried about buying a used one off ebay and needing it replaced again next year



This isn't a modified car. It is bone stock and will remain that way.

I've put the same brand on a Civic and one of the mounts didn't bolt down perfectly and needed some modification. Other than that they felt the same as far as stiffness goes compared to the ones I took out.

I prefer it from Napa if you don't want to get it through Honda; since, it's local. I prefer them stiff; since, those front ones are notorious for going out all the time.

Normally if the front is bad, so is the rear, which is the hardest to replace, next to the transmission one. Rockauto is the cheapest, but if you find one cheaper at ebay it won't be that big of a difference in quality.
