I had the right-side motor mount installed. I had someone tell me that I need the left side done also. Do the mounts look the same for both sides? I was told to buy the kits with 4 on them, but don't need the right side one. I know what the right side looks like but when I've entered the left side nothing comes. I'm just trying to get the right parts ordered and not getting the right answer from person as they prefer to text than call. Slow communications. Just looking for an image of what I need for the left side. I've searched and searched and must be missing something. Pic is of bad right side that was replaced. Does the left look like this but new? Thanks.

So, that is the main engine mount, there is only one of these, there are two more strut mounts at the top of the engine and there is one transmission mount. Here is what all of them look like for clarity. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.

Okay, thank you. That clarifies that for me. Had a parts place online try to tell me that the new one was available and could be used on the left side. I'm a woman and not a me mechanic, but other things I looked with Kits, only showed one for right so I wanted someone else to clarify this, so I don't order a part I don't need. Have a great day.
