Give me a list of the shorter bolts needed and I'll put them in the box. I just forgot what the length was from last time we installed them. Send it via email to sales@excelerateperformance.com please.

Please, share with us the issues you've seen. I'd like to understand how these mounts would donut like the original XLR8/Innovative ones did.:
Also, I've had these mounts in my car for at least a year and a half now...they do fit and work well. The Innovative mounts are very robust.
Truth be told we sell both mounts and have no complaints on either at all. Both seem to fit an work well.

Does anyone know what the factory oem hardness is?

I wonder what OEM technically is then. 50s? 40s?

OEM mounts are rubber so they don't really compare well to the urethane aftermarket ones. Speaking from experience the difference between 60 and 70 is pretty minor/negligible. You'll get quite a bit more noise and vibration in the cabin, but it isn't something you can't get used to but you will definitely be taking the luxury down a notch.

Ultimately, the interior vibrates more and just that vibration has a sound.

heeltoe or excel, you guys ever hear of the bolts rattling out of the subframe with stiffer mounts? I had mine installed when I had my new clutch installed since they were dropping the subframe anyways, and I looked yesterday and one bolt was completely missing and the other one was about a half inch loose from being tightened all the way down on the front motor mount.
