If the dash is shaking it's probably case the motor mounts in it are already too stiff.

You could have one of two issues here.

1.) if they are aftermarket poly mounts like the hasport ones then your dash will rattle because they are so stiff. This is very good for performance because there is minimal motor movement thus xfering more power to the ground.... it is a price you pay similar to lowering your car; i.e. it will ride rougher but handle better.

2.) if they are oem stock motor mounts, they are probably worn and inserts wouldn't help much, you would have to replace the mounts.

Now if they are stock oem mounts and they are in good shape then installing inserts will further stiffen the stock mount and would CAUSE not ELIMINATE vibrations due to the stiffness it would create.
