Get all the parts you need in a pile, and drive the car into it.
They will find their way into the correct places.
Ask around the .org if anyone has a pair. I ended up getting my rear which I was missing with help from the AZJBO boys Jarret and Eric. Eric had an extra laying around. He might have a front too...

yeah, i guess i need both. are aftermarket ones full replacments, or are they just inserts like the engine ones?

They're metal mounts... plus stock rubber bushings, but you can put aftermarket poly bushings in if you so choose.
According to your sig, your car is a 2000? It should have the Getrag trans already... so just use the mounts that were on it, transfer them to the Eco's transmission. The main thing that's different between a 2.4L Getrag and a Eco Getrag is the bellhousing, which is why you have to swap them.... but the mounts, brackets, shifter, cables, etc are all the same.
i tried that, they dont line up
