motor mounts different between coupe and vert?

Hit a little bump in my swap..

I bought a N/A motor that came out of a vert to replace my motor in the coupe. both motors are s4. We're in the process of dropping the vert motor in yet the mounts aren't going into the holes.. do we need to swap the mounts and/or oil pan from the coupe motor onto the vert motor?

thanks

no same oil pan and mounts.

When putting in my comp motor mounts, you have to thread the mount to one end of the bolt then put it in place and thread the mount back up to the middle before tightening it down.

There is a difference in the mounts but not a shape or form difference. The material of the Vert mounts is stiffer.
