Need new Motor Mounts

Got a 2007 TL-S and I need to replace my motor mounts. Where's the best place to buy the parts, and should I get OEM parts or an aftermarket brand? TIA

XLR8 or Innovative

It looks like to two dominant mounts for the TL are XLR8 and Innovative.... Anyone care to weigh in on which one is better?

XLR8 mounts are by far the better designed mounts, most people have problems with the innovative mounts. 65A is a good street mount.

They are working great for me but I have a 6 speed. I have the 75A's and love extra vibration. Gives a little hint of what's under the hood.

yea the lack of wheel hop is great and so is the increased response....however at idle in Drive for an automatic...you will be shaking like crazy lol. you can put it to neutral as if it was a manual but thats just more work for you.

The vibration is very reasonable with the 62A bushings, auto or manual. Our mounts are designed to be firmer and more durable but not sacrifice so much comfort that no one wants to drive in the car.
