OF COURSE, especially since my mechanic just called and said my car wont be ready until tomorrow.

I brought it in last Wednesday and he promised it'd be done by Friday. I called Friday afternoon, and he promised me 8pm Friday night or first thing Saturday morning. I didn't hear from him again Friday nor during the weekend so I blew up his phone Monday. He finally answered around 2pm and said it would be done Tuesday. Tuesday became Wednesday, now today(Wednesday) has become tomorrow. SO FRUSTRATING. Sorry for venting...

thanks for the review, i am also doing research on replacement mounts and this was very helpful, I'm wondering how bad the innovative 75a really is? Ive driven/riden in integras/civics with hasport mounts and I dont remember them striking me as unbearable?

I am debating what brand to go with. The Megan or hard race are oem style with the innovative are different. The Megan come with diff mounts too

I figure 135k on the clock is a good time to change them out

TBH I have never even seen those Hardrace OEM replacements until just now when you made me Google them. They look identical to the Megans. I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't the same exact product off the same exact production line in the same exact manufacturing facility... just with Megan Racing stickers on one and Hardrace stickers on the other. I would say whichever you can find cheaper are the ones to buy.

FYI I did notice today that with the AC on and with the car sitting still at idle, there is a noticeable amount more of vibration. My assumption is that the AC causes the engine to idle at a higher rpm range which induces a resonate vibration. The rpm at which your resonate vibration occurs may be different than mine, but without AC I idle at ~700 rpm with no vibration, and with AC I idle at ~1000 rpm with some good vibration. Small price to pay I guess, but I only use AC with the wife in the car, lol.
