needless to say.. it fell apart when i took it off the car.

yucky.. goopy stuff everywhere.

the top two are the old ones...

the bottom two are the new ones.

if you order a brand new stock driver motormount from mazda its a new design that looks exactly like the passenger mount. its steel now and is not aluminum like the old mount. a little heavier but i guess studier. also the brace around the rubber is twice as thick.

under 200 bucks each from mazdaformance..

cheaper alternative are the poly mounts from rotorsportsracing.

 

That's about what they all look like when you take them out!

 

The "goopy stuff" is removable you know, try a degreaser

 

That's wierd. I always thought the passenger side was the one to let go. Mine was pretty bad when I replaced it. I think I had an older mount. The newer ones have a heat shield to protect it from those hot turbos?

 

I would have just upgraded to solid mounts
It eliminates the need for these stupid braces everyone uses
