also what would be consequences of putting them in wrong {left on the right, right on left}, would this cause the motor to sit crooked.. etc.

thanks

Well, I don't know about a left and right difference, but there is certainly a top and bottom. I don't have the diagram in front of me at the moment, but I THINK the tabs on the inner part are towards the bottom of the car. I'll check my prothane diagram tonight if nobody else chimes in.

i belive the mounts are tilted in towards the center of the car, but im not sure wich one is left and right. try to see if u put one on the one side if it tilts inward, if its going outward it will probally be the other side.

98-02 motor mounts are the same. They have the same part number for both left and right.
