Default Motor mount for Integra...WTF?

So I just got my timing belts, all three belts (cracked), starter motor (that was dying), cam seals and plug wires replaced...for $940. Don't know if that was good or not but the mechanic told me about the motor mount...which is causing my front end to shake a bit.

He quoted about $200. Now is this something I can do myself or is it hard? I have no clue, but would it actually stop my car from rattling a bit? If I get the parts myself would it be cheaper? Any info would be great

I just got the poly inserts for my car. My lower ac bracket mount was torn and the insert just filled it in. A little more vibration at idle but not like people say. Motor used to torque when rev'ed up but not just stays in place . Cheap also, about $50 and all you need is a jack, block of wood, and some common house tools for the install.

There are quicker ways to do the rear mount, although most people just skip it and get about the same effect.

Heres some instructions from Jack @ P1 Automotive <PLUG!>

1) jack front of car up
2) remove lower subframe brace (4 bolts)

3) remove all rear tranny mount bolts

4) gently, pull heater control valve up about 2-3 inches towards hood/firewall

5) push rear tranny mount up till it hits HCV (it will still be straddling the rear subframe motor at the very top, but room to fit the mount is there)

6) reverse steps and proceed to kill any and all V8's


It's that easy, no need to remove the strut bar, tranny, header, O2 sensor, half shafts.......etc.....

20 mins and some bloody knuckles.
