Motor Mounts. SKP or Anchor?

Anyone have any experiences with these brands? Rockauto carries them and each has a 1yr warranty. All my mounts are shot!

No experience with the brands, but I recently replaced all four of mine. Each one is easy enough to change that I wouldn't worry about the quality if you don't mind doing the work. If you get 30 or 40k out of them, that's a deal. The engine mounting member mounts are super easy, the transverse mounts a bit more challenging but are replaced from up top. Piece of cake. Especially if you played with Legos. I could probably have all 4 done in a few hours or less.

I'm have the SKP mounts. There's nothing wrong with them. Anchor is a good brand. Anchor is also what is sold at most parts stores. I'd say that the SKP's are just as good as the Anchor's for factory replacements.

Appreciate the input. I'll go with SKP since they have a 4pc kit on rockauto. I'm getting the impression that mounts don't last on this car?

IMHO, don't bother with rubber mounts. Get Energy suspension mounts. They are firmer, perform better, and last longer.
