Guys.....

Just after some info in whats req'd to change the Passengers side Engine Mount...... and I guess also on the Drivers side as I will need to replace that one at some point in time....
Do I need to remove the Exhaust Manifold to give me better access? What's the easiest way of removing the old one and replacing it with a new one (ie with the engine still in the car obviously ::) )???

What sort of $$ are they worth and where's the best place to get them from.....
I rang Ripco and they want $100 each

Any "good" advice will be appreciated <ii>

(PS: I assume the VL Engine Mounts are not the same as a Vitara ones ???)

cheers....

rob

I think the VL mount has a little knoby bit that you have to cut off but other wise they are the same

you have to unbolt the mount with 3 bolts in it take it out of the car then get the engine mount out.
