agreed it is much better. IMO it actually feels like you DO have a short throw shifter.
. the vibration is truely only felt at idle, once your moving you don't even notice it.
off the subject, what does "IMO" stand for?

To order, just enter the part number in the search window. I purchased both the 60A and the 80A planning to do two sets and trying each.
8644K24 Flexible Urethane Shore 60A $24.14
8644K11 Flexible Urethane Shore 80A $20.88
8644K18 Flexible Urethane Shore 94A $20.71
Shore 60A is the most compliant and 94A is a hardest. If it's going to be a daily driver then go for either the 60A or 80A. I used the 80A on only the front mount and I notice quite a bit more noise and vibration in the cabin. Not terrible, but I like those kinds of noises.
One last thing to decide. If you can't do without your car for at least two days you need to find a spare set of engine mounts. The mounts need at least 48 hours to cure at room temperature. One other thing to consider is that it is having an extra set of motor mounts makes it much easier to reassemble as well as safer. However, since the engine is held in with the side mounts it isn't that difficult to do without spares.
