What are good aftermarket engine mounts?
My current engine and transmission mounts are worn and causing my car to feel and sound horrible and was told that i needed new engine mounts but i cant find a decent set of oem mounts and i didnt want to waste money on the cheap 120 sets on ebay so i was wondering wheres a good place to find good mounts and what brands should i look for? I have a 2002 accord ex v6 3.0L coupe
Rockauto has mount sets for $60.
I've always had fine results with Anchor brand, they seem to be OEM quality down to paint and witness marks on the components.
One thing to check before you blame the mounts, the V6 has a solenoid controlled mount, if the solenoid or the wiring control has been damaged or modified the mount may be stuck in the 'soft' setting which would make your engine flop around under throttle. Verify the mount controls are fine before installing new mounts.

Any aftermarket mounts you get will be too stiff and result in increased NVH over OEM mounts or will be softer and result in a markedly decreased lifespan.
While they are substantially more expensive,OEM mounts are the superior choice for comfort and longevity.
