Do any companies make more solid mounts, that would really help for wheel hop?

If not, you can get all of them including the two for the trans for $200 and change. Pretty cheap considering they are electronically controlled hydraulic mounts.

Oh I'm so glad my antenna motor and mast is covered.

where's the headlight housings, I had one replaced for leaks and now the other one is fogging up regularly. now I get to lose my headlight protectors I put on again.
I guess it's stupid of me to protect headlights that develop leaks.

My motor mounts broke when my tranny went. Something about the car violently downshifting from 5th to 2nd at 60 mph .

That's what I say. I have had cars with over 100K miles and/or 10+ years old & the motor mounts have never had a problem.
