While I'm at it, I might as well also replace the manual transmission's mounts, for the same reason. I want my 986 to be as vibration-free as possible. I once rode in one that almost vibrated the fillings out of my teeth.

7 pm addition: After reading about the travails of pressing a new rubber bushing into an existing engine mount, I think I'll just save time and grief by buying a whole new mount with bushing already installed, seeing as how they're fairly reasonably priced.
Yup. Been there, done that. Except I had to learn the hard way…
