You can make your own solid mounts by taking your mounts out. Fill the one side with 3M windshield gasket maker and then covering it with aluminum foil and letting it dry for about 24 hours.

Now I understand why we didn't understand each other Most Honda mounts are not solid like the one you have. Should be interesting to see how you are going to insert a polyurethane bushing in there with no holes.

Crazy, huh? I was going nuts with you all looking at me like I didn't know what I was talking about. From your point of view, I didn't :lmao:

My dremel tool is itching to make holes in the mount, but I may just have to do w/out ES mount on that side, and reinforce it with the 3M gasket maker you suggested. I really don't wanna risk messing up the mount, or making it any weaker than I think it already is :hs:

aren't those mounts just not completely cleaned. Looks like the area where it should be holes are just left over debris that wasn't cleaned out. like if from the mold just my opinion

The mount I bought seems like a remanufactured one. It's just the flash. The part is ok. I would have taken a better shot, but I just wanted the guys to know that it was a solid piece and that I'm not :loco:

when i did mines on my 93si, my two front lower torque mounts has the holes on the inserts for the zip ties but the rear mount does not. so i just insert it in, and bolt it down, and trust me its not goin anywhere. have fun. the vibrations should be fun.

I didn't notice too much vibrations after I installed motor mount bushings in my 00 Civic Si. Then again I had a very stiff suspension
