No, go to ajunkyard or craigslist and find a stock oem mount.

Those looks like it's going to break. Especially for being stiffer than usual, it's going to take more of a beating. It might not even line up your motor straight. So look for an oem replacement.

those are oem replacements. if he goes to a JUNK yard he is more then likely going to find junk. hasport is not oem and they seem to fit as well as a few others. he says he in low on money and these Im sure are better then stockers.

It says they are OEM replacements, but they are not OEM. Just because it says OEM replacements, doesn't mean it's exactly the same. Take CertiFit for example, the biggest OEM replacement body parts manufacturer, they are still off with their parts. and finally, the design looks like crap, Vibration + crappy design + weak welds = Motor in your rear view mirror along with your toes.

Junkyard mounts + mount inserts is my recommendation if your on a budget and you want stiffness. Junkyard mounts are not junk.... There are many crashed civics with perfect mounts in junkyards. Hasport's design is more superior than those ebay ones, went through more testing, and many people can vouch for hasport(me included).

If your mounts just have a small tear, less than 1cm or so, you can just purchase inserts for now and do the polyurethane fill along with the inserts and you will save yourself a bundle.

Since those mounts are completely filled, your motor will rock back and forth less when you rev, increasing your throttle response and reducing wheel hop. Just don't get them, even if I were on a budget, I wouldn't get those. I'd rather not drive my car.

your motor is not going to fall out if u use those mounts omg. I read it all now. not they are not the best mounts on earth but they will work for awhile Im sure of that. some people think if its not OEM or some High dollar name brand you are wasting your time. me on the other hand have no problem using somthing thats not over priced to get me by until I can afford to buy what I really want.

its not fun with the engine in the car but doable. u will have to take the rear bracket out and then the three bolts that hold the mount in. it will be alot easier if u could do this on a lift but if no lift then just use jackstands.

I recommend taking off the im for the rear mount it's a pain in the pain the *** (notice that it is a pain inside of an already existing pain in the ***)

I just did mine since the head is out of the car and it was still annoying even with the extra space I had

and about those mounts they aren't going to snap in half or anything but they aren't the best quality (it's okay you don't need name brands necessarily) but you will have a lot of vibration

I heard you can actually get they call it 3m window weld which is urethane and fill the mounts with that it take a couple days to dry but if you do half and half it works out well. I tried it i had some stock mounts laying around and actually filled them and put it on just to see if it was a rumor but it worked out very very well.

Don't take off the head. Just take off the back bracket, then take off the back mount, It'll take alot of gorilla power and turtle patience to get it off, but it'll come off. Taking off the intake manifold and head will only cost you more money and time,+ risking more problems to come up.

If I were you I'd do the left and right one's first though.
