If it doesn't, then you'll be in the same boat as the rest of us . . . waiting to get the front/rear mount problem resolved.

There's a HUGE difference between a little vibration and what we are experiencing. If I were close to Innovative I'd go there and guarantee they would be freaked out by how bad it's vibrating.
Has anyone been in one of those fancy vibrating massage chairs? Well go sit in one and turn it on vibrate only and that's what it feels like when mine's in gear, and like Fuzzy says, it gets worse with the A/C on. It will literally rattle the fillings out of your teeth. I feel like I'm in a NASCAR . . . and I'm not exaggerating.

the only time i have vibrations that i would consider this bad is when i let my clutch out about halfway in first. other than that it does have increased vibrations but it's hard to compare without ridding in someone else's car with the same issue. or maybe it's because i'm use to raggedy old cars and trucks.
on that note RUF are you ever in Dallas or Austin? I sometimes go to Dallas for the weekend and maybe we could meet up and compare. i go skating up in allen at the skatepark and will be up again with my car on may 9th - 11th.

you will notice that the little black ABS/SRS box is blocking access to the side mount. remove those 3 bolts, unplug it but i left the cable attached. just set it on top the motor out of the way. with the front and rear mounts still installed just unbolt the side mount. 3 bolts hold the mount to the body/frame, 2 in the engine block and then the main center one. you will need some ratchet extensions to get to the bolts. then just wiggle it around until you get it to slide out. once that's out get the new one in bolt everything back down. once you get the frame and block bolts started by hand go ahead and slide the main center bolt in while everything is loose. i tightened the frame and engine block bolts down in a rotating pattern to make sure everything stayed aligned. then place the SRS box and bracket back in place and plug it back in. waa-la!

if you have driven an older car and are use to little vibrations and rattles then you probably won't mind these mounts. i daily a 96 mustang that handles worse than a drunk slut on friday night. it has all kinds of rattles and such. just listening to some people on here complain about some little rattles in the sunroof or behind the radio. these mounts are not for those type people.

I wish someone in my area had these so I could see if it would drive me nuts or not...I mean mine vibrates al little bit b/c of whichever one is torn, but I do DD mine....grrrrr I don't know what to do. I want them bad, but not if its gonna piss me off every time I drive it..

Could one of you guys post a picture of the new side mount installed? I am now starting to have some of these crazy vibration issues with the new side mount, that I did not have with the old side mount.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I was examining the new side mount today, made sure everything was tightened up correctly and it appears to be, but I noticed that my new side mount appears to be at an angle:
What do you guys think, installation issue (on my part) or faulty replacement mount? Everything lined up fine when I was installing it.

I got tired of the excessive vibration problem and tried trouble shooting with the new innovative mount, but with no luck. I just ended up putting the old innovative one back on and now the problem is gone.
