Motor Mounts

I was quoted $700 to have all 3 motor mounts replaced. Is this a fair price?

It was around $380 for the parts and $320 for the labor.

Yeah $320 for labor sounds like a good price to me.
I just had my Engine mounts replaced last night.
The side mount is a joke took like 20 mins. Front mount took 1 1/2 hours
and rear mount was a pita took forever.

It doesn't sound insane by any means. As stated already, the side mount is so easy just anyone with a socket set can do it in under 30 minutes.

I had all of my motor mounts replaced a few weeks ago. It was just over $900 for parts, labor, and tax out the door.

I get huge kick out of reading all these posts about motor mount replacements. Paul, our mechanic in NJ, replaced my rear sway bar end links, rear sway bar bushings, spark plugs, and front & side motor mounts for $100 cash. That is of course, after I spent $69.75 for a front mount on ebaY which came with a better (5 year) warranty than the OEM's 1 year (and remember, the front mount for manual transmission models costs twice what the Auto trans one costs), and the side mount from rockauto.com for $21, also with a 5 year warranty.

I've done all three. You might save some money by doing the passenger side mount yourself if you have the tools.. The only difficulty you may encounter is a stuck bolt or two, but otherwise it's not hard at all.
