Cheapest OEM Engine Mounts?

My engine mounts on my 04 TL have been shot for a while and I need to replace them. I know that there are a few OEM parts dealers that are always advertising sales on this site, but I cant seem to find anything.

Does anyone know of any discounts or sale that are going on? any advice is appreciated.

That sounds extremely cheap. I guess my local dealer is worth a shot, but I figured some parts might be cheaper online. I feel like all the online OEM parts dealers are always offering some kind of discounts.

The total for all 3 mounts is around $320, but the side mount is cheap. 100 for front and rear was a great deal.

$320 is a good price for all 3 mounts, on delray acura thats the price they have em for also so i highly doubt you'll find them anywhere cheaper. Oh and btw if you're gonna replace two of them might as well do all 3 because if 2 mounts are bad that means the 3rd is probably on its way out soon so its better to be safe than sorry. Your car is going to feel amazingly smooth after installing all new OEM mounts.

depends by dealer. my local dealer (sierra acura) doesnt mark up from msrp like most dealers do. Plus if you are cool with them they can apply their employee discount with a couple clicks on their computer

Could always get the mounts from XLR8 for 300 bucks, far superior than OEM and cheaper it seems. Replace em once and never worry about it again.

Ive considered polys but this car is my daily driver, but I dont think id enjoy the vibrations. Id like to keep it as stock and comfortable for as long as possible.



I ended up ordering from delray (ACURAOEMParts.com). Im not 100% sure if it would have been cheaper to order from OEMAcuraParts.com since delray doesn't apply the coupons till they charge you, and since I get charged tax since im in in-state, but the different would have been no more then +/- $5. Id hope that since im somewhat close to delray that the shipping would be a little faster. I expect to get charged somewhere around $330.

It might be worth checking into our XLR8 engine mounts so you don't have to keep replacing your mounts. Our mounts are more durable but they are performance-oriented.

Does the ride quality change a lot going with the XLR8 engine mounts? I like to have a smooth ride also.

How much shipped to Toronto, Canada for all 3 mounts.

I Just installed the 75a durometer inserts.
a change in ride experience for the better, I can feel the clutch easier, and firmed up my shifts.

the 75a's do provide an in-cabin massaging system when you're at a stop with the A/C on full blast.
its not that bad.

The 62a durometer inserts are almost like stock barely any vibration so i highly recommend those if you're looking for mounts that perform better and last longer than OEM and cost just about the same if not less.

I like aftermarket motor mounts for their longevity but I just feel having any sort of vibration while idling doesnt fit a semi luxury car. It's less pronounced on manuals as they idle in neutral, but automatics have it worse. I'm very picky about the smoothness during idle

It really is a personal preference for what the owner wants. Similar to the tire choices many of us make. More noise/vibration is acceptable to some for performance while others demand smooth and quiet.

okay so since I want something very smooth. No Vibration and no engine shaking around.

These are the three options they have.
Street (62A)
Strip (75A)
Race (85A) polyurethane inserts (The polyurethane inserts also have a lifetime warranty)

Street (62A) is similar to stock? How does the (72A) feel?
