The mounts, I can take care of them this weekend.

By the way, my profile picture appears on my profile page, but not on my posts. Is there a setting I need to change to fix that?
Send me the avatar pic in a PM and I'll load it

Hey all, I've got the mounts and they're going on the next day I can get a friend to help me with them. Next weekend probably.

I've got a few more questions about the sub frame.
My internet junkyard searches give me the impression that I can use sub frames from '94 through '02 cars, but not from '93 and earlier. Am I correct?
Are the sub frames from SC or SW cars compatible with my SL1? What about those from SL2 cars?
Are the sub frames from stick shift cars the same as those from automatics?

Motor mounts done.

Now I just need to get a sub frame. And hope all the bolts and everything line up perfectly.

Has your car ever been in a wreck? If so, the frame may be tweaked, especially if it was not checked by a body shop.

I'd be very of purchasing a subframe from a vehicle that had been in an accident, especially front end collision for the same reason. If the subframe is tweaked, the holes will not line up. I suppose you could measure center to make sure the replacement will line up with your vehicle

No major ones, at least not since I've had the car. I've been sideswiped twice, not very hard, damage was minimal both times.
