I have the same set. I have the fronts installed. Waiting till next week for the rear. Noticeably stiffer already and buzzy inside.

for me, the $3.99 polyeurethane tube from lowe's hardware works great. I used 1 1/2 tubes.

install difficulty?

i went ahead and picked them up. paid "race shop" prices cause I wanted them asap for this weekend.

i see they give you the torque mount ones and the rear one. I dont run the front mounts so i just plan on doing it to the main three mounts. how the hell do you guys put the rear one in. ive been thinking about it and it seems like it would be a huge pain in the ass.

disconnect the rear mount from the motor and remove the center bolt. Obviously with a jack under it. I did this once already and it wasn't that bad.

I like the inserts better than the 3M ----. I don't know why, but I think it makes for a smoother ride. The window weld ---- rattled twice as much and I don't really notice one being any better than the other. I guess it comes down to price and quality of ride.

And it is pretty easy to remove the window weld if you want to... I gave it a few hacks with a razor blade and it pulls right apart.

I love my ES inserts in my hatch but then again I'm only rolling a NA d15b but still it's like 100x's better. My car is stripped out so it's already noisy so I didn't really notice anything besides just alil more vibration.
