Talking 6speed Motor mount question... PLEASE!!

well i need to replace all my motor mounts on my 2004 TL 6speed.

does anyone know the part numbers for the side, rear, front and trans mount??
i noticed that Automatics have a different trans mount number is that the only one that would be different from a auto and a manual?? and the rest of the motor mounts should be okay correct??

Also whats the vacuum line going into the front and rear mounts for?? can that be blocked off??

any help, answers, pics or links is appreciated!!

the vacuum lines to the mounts are to stiffen them when the engine starts up, if I remember correctly. There's a solenoid in the engine bay near the firewall that control them. I would imagine this operates on the vacuum generated during startup high idle which is why you may feel more vibrations in the first few seconds.

Why not go with urethane mounts from one of the vendors? It's unfortunate they dont sell them individually otherwise I'd replace my side mount with one.

I read in earlier threads the MT mount is a bit more tough than an automatic due to the increased stresses of clutch engagement. Better stick with the MT mounts if they're different.
