Motor Mount job?

[stargazer_61]

As other pros and DIYers have said, this is not that difficult a job. I did mine a little differently than Mattyb but still went at it from the bottom end and it took about 90 minutes. I just had regular tools available and had to break loose and tighten from the top end but I did attach my sockets from underneath. Here is how I did mine:

Order them from BMA or Autohausaz and do it yourself! Like others have said, you will learn your car this way and save $$ for more important things - like mods.

Well living in a condo , on the top floor as i do i have no place to store a jack . I got a quote of $450 from an Indy shop nearby so i'll probably just take it there.Thanks everyone.

thats a good write up. I guess it doesnt matter how u do it top or bottom it still requires cursing, smashed up knuckles and plenty of beer

It was 1000 bucks for me parts and labor at the dealer. Although it took the little guy 3 days to do it. Seems techs don't help each other out at the dealer. Anyhow, I'd go BMW indy for that work. Labor is a killer.
