Default Prothane motor mount inserts/no fit

Has anyone experienced these not being a fit?

Am I crazy or are you supposed to cut the inserts back to fit?

are you trying them in the correct mounts ? Not to be a smart ***. But the don't go in the upper visible mounts. The go in the to lower front mounts, and the one on the back that holds the tranny and block in one spot.

yes. I only had time to get to the left mount, under the wheel well. Which is the only mount that had a problem. It seems that in order to get the inserts to fit, I would have to shave off almost a half inch total otherwise the nut wouldnt go back on.
The insert is near the right shape but seems to have some arch from top to bottom when squeezed into the bracket. Have you had experience with this?

The Prothane is made for the TOP mounts, whereas the ES kit is made for the bottom mounts. Both kits include a rear mount.
