Yeah so I dunno where to get this stuff. Prefer to go online and order them, because not sure if I trust places around here. But, if I must........ So how much am I looking at to buy them and where is a good source for ones that WILL fit? I need them bad now....... I have waited too too long.

Let me clear some things up...

The engine has 4 motor mounts. Front, back, left and right. When someone tells you your motor mounts need to be replaced, they mean the front and rear ones. Those are the ones that wear out and will cause your motor to rock too much in the engine bay. When they do wear out, its just the rubber center that goes bad.

Now you have 2 options.
1. Get 2 brand new mounts from toyota for the front and back. They are actually not too expensive...around 100 bucks for both.
2. Instead of replacing the mounts, you could "upgrade" to polyurethane inserts. You can put them over your old damaged motor mounts and they will be stiffer then brand new oem mounts.

If you want to go with brand new OEM mounts for the front and rear, you can order them here for a good bit cheaper then your local dealer will charge you...
