If the OP is posting such generic questions he/she evidently is NOT mechanically inclined, so a shop will be doing all this work. Pass on it. My mechanic just advised a lady friend to dump her Saturn because parts are starting to dry up and in the future it is going to be tough to fix them.

Why did you give an ''eyeroll'' for offering info on the price I paid for 2 motor mounts?

What kind of vehicle and which mounts did you replaced? If its not the same vehicle, same mounts. Your comparo is not valid.

There are more motor mounts than the front and back?
Well, sorry, was only trying to help.
Whether a Volvo or a Nissan Versa...I think $250 is a good ballpark...and gives someone
an idea.
Trying to help the guy out in buying that car or not.

Not really.....

Depends on the vehicle, the engine configuration (side mount versus traditional forward mounting), type of mount (some are hard rubber, others are liquidfilled, silicone filled, etc). It's much more involved to swap motor mounts on an Audi than an older Mustang for instance.

They can range from $20 each up to $200 each. Where you buy them also plays a factor. So not knowing what type of vehicle it is and where the parts were purchased makes it almost impossible to make an assumption on a ballpark.
