Interchangeable engine mounts
Hi guys, so I think my mounts are going and I am looking at spares. Does anyone know if the left and right are interchangeable? Does it matter if they are from a manual/automatic, LHD/RHD, 5/6 speed?
Thanks

Thanks. I compared them at mazdatrix but they look the same to me. I'll probably get them second hand or some aftermarket ones from shady-ish sellers, thats why I would like some visual differences

Would love to do that, but theres no chance. Last time I was at mazda they quoted me 1000 just for the coils, so Im guessing by comparing their coil prices to aftermarket ones, the mounts would probably be up to 500 and for me thats too much, especially since the car is only worth around 3000(optimistically). And given the fact that I can buy used ones for 50 delivered Im probably gonna go with that, or maybe resin refurbished for 100 or *stock* aftermarket ones for around 150. The down side is a lot of those sellers dont even know what they are selling, thats why I would like to make sure I could tell the difference.
Do you have any experience with resin refurbished ones? In theory they might be more sporty

You can call BS all you want but that was the price they quoted me :D Without work mind you. I also had to pay 150 for them to change the oil that I brought with me, and hook it up to the computer to check any hidden errors. Any other mechanic would charge me about 20 for the same job. Thanks but im in EU, parts from US are a hassle

Avondale Mazda is local to me and they're good with pricing. I've also found Tascaparts.com to be pretty low, but since you're in the EU, it might be different.
