I'm curious too. Question: you have the sub frame loose. What do you see? Do you have access to the bolts that secure the mounts to the sub frame? Can you see the nuts that secure the mount to the engine?
Just thought I'd share as I start the process of replacing the engine mounts in my '04 CS.
The engine vibrations have been getting progressively worse. It's shaking the entire cabin and anything that isn't bolted down tight is rattling to the tune of the engine. Once at speed, there's no issue, but the shudder coming to a stop and the vibrations at idle are annoying!
So here we go. Hope to have everything done by tomorrow. It took about 90 mins just to jack up the car, take the wheels off, remove trays, fender liners, air boxes, MAFs, and engine covers. If you've never taken the fender liners out, there's a boat load of gunk in the far corner of the fender nearest the door.

I'm following Ciscorp's DIY instructions to do the work. I'll be adding more photos to the thread as I proceed to help give the visual of what's entailed with this project.
More to come...
Hey,
How exactly did you support the motor here? The set up seems to be covered up by a towel. I am about to attempt this job myself! Wish me luck lol
