Vibrates a little more? Try a lot more. This is with the Energy Suspension mounts.

Really annoying for a daily driver IMO.

Has anyone released a better solution yet?

How about the Ingall's Stiffy damper? Reccommended for a daily driver?

I read reviews that the innovative street mounts are good and don't have as much vibration as the inserts.

I think its there 75A version

When idling with the windows up and A/C on, it's pretty bad. Plus, anything loose or rattley and you'll know about it right away.

are you talking about mounts or mount inserts (Todd00). i have the energy suspension motor mount inserts and i can feel a difference, driving and at idle. the vibration is that bad though, i havent had a/c for a couple years so i dont know how it is with the a/c on, but at idle it's really not that bad, yes it's a daily driver. i'm about to put the suspension inserts in too, hopefully those feel just as nice.
