Does anyone here have these? I just got mine in the mail and they are going in next week. Would you do them again if you knew then what you know now? How bad is the vibration? Does it get better with time? Did they stop the wheel hop?
Any and all input is welcome 
And by the way, why doesn't the email notification work here anymore?

I have all 3 in my GSR. Most people seem to be content to jus do the FRONT TWO, but with me bustin axles left and right(LITERALLY!), i put all three in....
I did it in an UNorthadox manner, i put the REAR in first(MOST torque sensitive), then put the front two in a week later...
Vibration is there, you know it, however, it doesnt really bother me. Its not window shaking, but you can see the steering wheel vibrate more.
The front BOTTOM 2 are easy install, the rear is the most painful one, i had help on that one.
They helped my wheel hop,(knock on wood!)helped control my axle breakage!
Side note, the SHIFTS feel better in the car now, more CONFIDENT, and believe it or not, i believe the car CORNERS better, maybe because im not throwing around the 500lbs of ENGINE under the hood, it jus stays put! 
If your goin to do all 3, i think the ORDER to do it is, driver front, then pass. front, then rear....Ya gotta drop the engine a tad for the front driver mount!
Good luck!

I installed all (3) in my GSR. The front (2) were easy and the back one was a big pain in the ass but worth it. The car is a lot tighter in the drivetrain dept. No more wheelhop and nice tight shifts. Vibration is minimal and I rather like it! Best bang for the buck in the mod dept. and I wouldn't have my car any other way.

I installed all 3 in my civic. It helped tremedously with clutch chatter and shifting. The vibrations are DEFINITELY NOTICEABLE. Especially if you have a low idle. I don't recommend it if your car is a daily driver. It doesn't bother me anymore since I'm used to it but anytime someone gets in my car they ask "why does it shake like that?"

Get 'em! You'll love 'em. The vibration's not that bad at all and you quickly stop noticing it. I got them because of wheel hop. I've had them for about a year now and I can't recall having wheel hop even once since they were installed.

Are there any differences between Integra LS, RS, GSR, Civic EX, SI ES motor mount inserts? On top of the yellow box, there's a sticker that reads, "16.1106G Honda/Acura Motor Mount Inserts". Is that the right part number for a set of Civic EX inserts? I'm not sure if I got the right ones for my EX. Thankx.

16.1106G is for '99 Si's. What you need is 16.1105G for '92-'98 civic's.
