I am currently installing prothane motor mount inserts. I sucessfully got the front and passenger side mounts done a few days ago. The issues I am having now the driver side and the rear mounts, but mostly the driver side. I unbolted all three nuts for the mount bracket and got the insert bolt out but cannot get the bracket to come out. I have searched and only found threads with the GSTs or GSXs but not for the 420a. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
 
You will need to lift the passenger side of the motor at an angle to get the 420A driver side out. It's all about angles, you will need to trial and error there is no directions per se.

i did the same on mine it is a pain. I think i had to actually unbolt the bracket the mount is on there should be 1-2 bolts on the top of the bracket and 2-3 on the side you can get to the ones on top easily and the ones on the side from the wheel well. the back mount is pretty hard to get to it just takes patience. Also mine is an automatic i dont know if the driver side is the same or not if yours is manual.
