Energy Motor Mount inserts help!

I have manual mounts in my 2000 auto, they finally gave out on me, they were crappy Ebay ones so it was expected.

My question is, can I fit the energy inserts into my old automatic mounts? Or can they only be pressed into the manual mounts?


Additionally where can I find a good price for the front and back inserts themselves?

ES only makes bushing for MT mounts and you can order them through Cattman.

They'll fit easily, no press required!

Front and rear are different. You need both, manual mounts, not electronic.

Nah, the ES bushings won't go into auto ones (mount too big/bushing too small). It'd have been better if you put the auto mounts on then you could have gotten the ES bushings into the manual mounts at your leisure.

Yeah I definitely did the complete reverse of what I need. At least I actually have manual mounts so half the battle is over.
