Default Semi Solid motor mounts

How bad are the vibes with a semi solid motor mount?

I use them, and I've really liked them thus far. It shakes slightly more than the original ones. I personally like the feel of it.

Most noticeably, the semi solid engine mounts shake the steering wheel, and you feel vibes through the seat at idle. They are on par with any modern economy car (civic, matrix) in intensity.

My original mounts were so worn out that things were shaking already. Got the semi solid and now things vibrate much, much less. Still have a bit and wonder how much is coming back through the transmission mount which gets a semi-solid next month, but overall I love them.

If you have really bad stock mounts, you'll get a whole lot less vibration with the semi-solid than you have now...something to keep in mind!
