bitchin. Thanks for the link bro.

Chim. dont bother using them...they arent' as durable as a whole new mount. TRZ,CPe and SU all make nice ones.

[wankular]

Yeah, as long as you're going to be under the car taking the mount off you might as well get a whole new one. You can usually find a decent used one in the F/S section.

As someone who went from stock to CS inserts to CP-e's 75 duro, I wouldn't waste time with the inserts myself either. Go with CP-e or TRZ's rear mount.

I agree with pretty much everything here. I have the Corksport inserts on my car now and I don't feel like they make that much of a difference. I'm in the market for a full rear mount now.

I just don't want insane vibration translating to the cabin, hence why I asked about inserts.

[Frequentflyer]

Honestly, just stick with stock then because installing them is more trouble than it's worth unless you're under there doing an oil change or something. The vibes are really not bad at all with the 75 duro. They're definitely there, but not bad at all, so I'd expect the 60 duro to be even less noticable. Nothing I'd consider "insane" at all.

I have the Street Unit one (62A duro I think) and the vibes aren't bad, I haven't even finished the break-in yet. When I first start the car I can feel it, but when moving and even stopped at a redlight it's barely noticeable.

I will give the other side.

I bought the inserts and like them a lot.
I didn't at first, there was a noticeable bump when starting the car, and vibes at idle, but after a few weeks the bump and vibes went away.
I would not like any added vibes at all, I would have got rid of the inserts if the vibes had not gone away after a little break in.

I had the inserts and have the CPE (60 durometer). The inserts give almost as much "tightening" of the drivetrain feel with only half as much of an increase in noise and vibration. Starting my car this afternoon after two weeks of driving a VW eurovan I'm thinking holy shit this car is rough. I know I'll get used to it again soon enough that it wont' seem worth it to switch back to the inserts. But having had both, I'd recommend inserts unless it's not your daily driver or you think that the rougher a car is, the faster it is.

I too initially put the inserts in but 2-3 months later I was looking for a real MM.
TRZ had too much vibrations but besides that it was great.
I suggest going with CPe or StreetUnits new Mount.

you barely feel the vibes, i have a SU mount i got from someone here for cheap and it's great. I hardly realize the vibes are even there anymore unless i'm alone in the car, at a stop light and can feel it a bit... i like it, more like the car is really alive

75 duro cpe rmm. love it.

[Biggu]

they work quite well when you get them but they will eventually ware out and get soft.

I live in SW florida, and I run my ac almost all year long, night and day. I went with the inserts for that reason. All the guys saying the vibes aren that bad, are refering to non-ac vibes.

My old car, i had poly mount, tranny mount , and inserts on the side mount. the vibes werent bad at all, but i removed the ac, so i never knew what it was like with ac on.
