2G 4G63T engine mount differences AT/MT

[Boma]

I've researched and did some image googling on my own, I'm pretty much a novice DIY person. I have a '98 GST spyder convertible automatic. Here's my question:

Does the engine mounts vary between the auto and 5-speed? The only thing I've noticed that are different are the parts number. I would appreciate it if someone could verify this for me as I'm about to get parts and change my front and rear mounts. I'm also planning on getting the prothane inserts from RRE.

Thanks in advance

When I bought Prothane mounts for my 2G auto about three years ago one of the mounts did not fit.

In a recent thread (http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/333716-motor-mounts.html) it was reported that Prothane now talks a little about autos.

You need to confirm explicitly with the vendor before ordering the parts. Then please report back here. This is often asked, and needs a definitive answer.

Thanks for your reply. Anyways, I'm just going to change the front and rear mounts. I read on Energy Suspension's website that their inserts on the 2G are ONLY for the 5-speed. Since Prothane has the same inserts and RRE is pretty close to where I live, I would just pick it up at their store, but since seeing the website, I've had doubts whether the mounts on the AT's are different than that of the MT's.

Anymore insights on this topic would be much appreciated. Again, thanks in advance.

The passenger side and rear mounts physically are different from the Auto to the 5spd, however I know the poly insert works for the passenger side mount on both vehicles. I'll take a picture of both mounts for the rear in the morning if you'd like, as I've got both of them out of the dsm's.
