I'm planning on doing mine, the rear motor mount, within the next few days. I'm hoping I don't run into any problem, especially since I'm not too mechanically inclined.

The front is easy.

Rear, not so easy. Can be a major PITA during reinstall if you dont drop the subframe a bit.

It'll be fine to drive it. BTW, I didn't have to drop the subframe to get my front and rear mm's in.

You shouldnt need to worry about your transmission mount. Its basically just there to hold the trans in place and to keep it level with the motor. Its the front mount that takes most of the torque and abuse.
