Energy Suspension Engine Mounts

I got these a while back with the intro sale but never put them on. I tried twice already and both times the shops didnt have the equipment to do it. They had the press but didnt have the correct peices to punch them out properly. This time I am going to a machine shop.

I am not quite sure which way the mounts go into the brackets. I know they are directional and by matching them up with the bolt sleeves on the stock mounts it appears as though the side of the mount that extends out (not the flat side) goes on the passenger side of the vehicle. Am I correct?

I tried to remove the OEM bushings in my garage by cutting and drilling the rubber and using an air hammer to cut out the inner metal ring. I didnt get very far. Hopefully the machine shop will have better luck.
