Piece of cake. Either get a prothane mount, or a 1LE mount.

Get the 1LE mount. The poly trans mounts will vibrate the car beyond belief when you first install them. The poly will soften up some in about a weeks time but still doesnt have the comfort of a the 1LE mount.

1LE or stock all the way. Poly tranny mounts SUCK for a driver, vibration is horrible as Barney said. Poly motor with stock tranny mount is a NICE combo for me. More solid feel with only a very tiny NVH penalty, only nitpicky guys (like me) would even notice.

Yah auto zone never knows what they carry. I was there one time asking for gc and they said they never carried it! I bought at least 3 casses of it from them. Turns out they just stopped stocking it at that store.
