That looks like the insert for the front roll stopper mount on my 1G,which is hooked to the tranny. That insert you have in the pic is not the right one for that mount. It should be a big round two piece mount with a steel sleeve. Hope this helps. keep us posted. Travis
 
That's odd. That rubber mount has either been filled with Window Weld (unlikely), or isn't the stock mount (more likely). You'll need to replace that mount with a stock one before you can use those inserts. The stock mount has two large slots on either side of the inner metal sleeve where the inserts seat... obviously, the mount you have doesn't have those slots.
 
I've never seen a rear motor mount that looks like that! It must be from a different manufacturer. The OEM rear style is similar to the front and the inserts fit it without force. I would stick with just using what you have, but it looks like you already pulled out the inner sleeve. If thats the case, just go buy another rear mount that has the same style as the front.
 
thanks for helping , i bought the car 6 months ago maybe its not the original mount the strange thing is that fits work good, it doesn´t see worn so i think i will continue using it till i find the right mount to use along with the insert
 
Just a idea, if the four holes I see go all the way thru the mount, You could bet a four bolts that just barely thread in the holes, put two big washers on each end, tighten with a nut and that would make a much more stiff mount. Just make sure the the washers aren't big enough to interfere with the center mounting bolt.
