got a ton of vibration in the cabin from installing the two side mounts (not the rear one yet). But, then again, when I ordered my Prothane mounts, the driver's side mount only came with 2 "race" inserts, so thats what I have now. I already took the car apart and put felt everywhere, but I'm gonna go and take it apart again to put foam everywhere. The rattles were killing me!

You wouldn't like riding in my car. ALL of my motor mounts have an insert in them. :chuckles:

I know some guys who use a polymer filler to fill all their motor mounts. Messy but cheaper and looks OEM.
