Good price yes and as you know its the whole mount, not an insert. Probaly not as easy as the insert but not hard, go for it.

The eco mounts and the other 3rd gen mounts are different.
I was a retard, and now I'm permanently banned.

What he said.
It's really not that hard. You would have to use something to support the engine underneath, like a heavy duty car jack. Undo the mount, install the new mount, vuala!
I would use 2 people for this job though. 1 person to install the mount and 1 person to watch the jack cause it might start to slowly go down and they would just jack it back up some more.

Pretty much what I wrote above is exactly what you'll have to do. It really isn't hard. You'll need basic tools and I believe a torque wrench.

there is liek one bolt for a bracket for the A/C line, surport the engine with a jack WITH a wooen block on it to the oil pan, and its 2 bolts, there really aren't any more detailed instuctions, its extremely basic
if you did the older mount and thought it was easy
then prepair your self
the eco mount is 10 times easier to change , pretty much you remove stock mount , intall new mount , its that easy
