Bad Strut Mount - any other parts I should buy with it?

I took the car into Brake Check because of some thud and pop noises in the left wheel well when hitting any bumps. They diagnosed it as a bad left strut mount. Initially they said it was $50 labor + parts, after a week of getting them to order the part they said total cost was $275. I laughed and said no thanks.

I called Pep Boys and they said the part was $65, they would do the labor for $45 plus an alignment for $49. I knew I could get the part cheaper so I checked Autozone and they had the mount with bearing for $39 (special order).

I was going to buy they Autozone part then take it to Pep Boys for the install but I wanted to know if there was any other part that I needed before taking it into the shop.

thanks for the help ahead of time,

Mount and the bearing is all you need. As long as thats really your problem.
