Icon7 is it a good idea to replace a pass. side engine mount with a hasport one?

I recently tore the passenger side motor mount on my 2002 Rsx S. I was wondering if it's smart to get an upgraded one from Hasport if the rest are staying stock? Should i just put another stock one in until i can afford the whole set? Will it hurt the other mounts if the Hasport is put in on just one side? Any help? Thanks..

just get a stock one until you can get the whole set but no it shouldnt hurt anything if you get one aftermarket mount...

i have two innovative mounts and one stock mount in my car but i also received the wrong mount kit and not knowing all other mounts would fit minus one sucked until we had the other ones in.

Do the Hasports. I have heard some complaints about the innovative mounts recently. Innovative's are nice but they must of had a bad batch.

it won't hurt anything at all. But why just replace one though? Just buy a set and upgrade them all.

lots of people just replace the pillow mount with a Hasport unit

the Hasport mount will work just fine in conjunction with the factory mounts

dont mean to thread jack but since you posted in here Hasport thought i'd ask, my front mount is torn and i plan to replace the rest with your mounts in 62a. should i bother replacing the front with either stock or aftermarket?

might as well replace it with the 62a since it is blown. The factory one will work just fine with the others being aftermarket though.

When my passenger side mount ripped, I bought an Avid passenger mount. I like the design a lot better than others. Super easy to install.

Worked fine, didn't feel any harsh difference. I highly recommend, if you don't plan to change all the mounts.

Thanks for the info...I think I'm going to run a new stock one and then save for the whole set later. I'll look into that Avid mount and see what it costs...better design never hurts..

Here is a link to the Avid mount. I like the design a lot more than that weird flower shaped mount.

Pretty affordable in my opinion. Super easy to install. If you do plan to do full mounts in the future, you can always sell the 1 passenger to someone like I did.

If you're daily driving it might actually be better to save only one or two mounts aftermarket because of all the damn vibrations lol.

Have only one of them adds a bit of stiffness yet won't add too much vibrations.

I have all Innovative mounts in mine. They shake the whole car.
