didn't take that long when i got mine. Under a week, I think.

Has anyone found motor mount inserts for an automatic? It seems that they are all produced for manual transmissions only, or at least i haven't found any.

The ones I got weren't for autos. I forced it in there, but I wouldn't recommend doing that.

Is there anywhere I can pick one of these up locally??? I'd pay more to not have to wait...

I have these installed too. They work so much better than having nothing at all with the extra support + it's made by Energy

IDK who's bright idea it was to have that silly dog bone mount in front anyway - it's such a cheap design because of how easy it is to rip w/ all that extra space.

And YES, the front dog bone mount is shaped differently for AT & MT.

Honda Front Dog Bone Mount:
MT ROD ASSY., TORQUE P/N 50830-SM4-020
AT ROD ASSY., TORQUE P/N 50830-SM4-A81

Energy only makes them for MT last I checked so for any AT wanting this and your mount is shot, buy the MT mount + insert and you should be fine (fitment is the same on the bottom end - correct me if I'm wrong). Oh yeah, as Deevergote mentioned they do come in 2 color choices - red/black.



H23Accord: Look at post # 117 by AccordSIR in response to your question about different front mounts =

Even though the OEM part numbers for the Auto and manual are different, I wonder if the aftermarket mounts make it the same shape for both so I can use the inserts. Any one has pics of the mounts for both auto and manual? It looks like all of the aftermarket part numbers I looked at for both auto and manual are the same for the torque rod.
Thanks.
