Not the same... can't you see the way it bolts to the trans is different? We can't use Probe mounts either.

The only other mount we can use is the Probe front mount, and we would because its a little beefier.

Also, I suggest upgrading that mount last... concentrate your efforts on front and rear mounts, they do the most work.

It just is the top part of the mount that gets replaced. I am thinking that is interchangable between the 2, thats the question here. I understand fully the 2 mounts are different, those are both of my cars, and that protege I did a KL swap to and then sold it and the dood put a BP back into..

Im only talking about the part that is pictured on the AWR site, I know the 2 mount to the trans differently, thats obvious.

Maybe I'm dumb, but I didn't think you could take that mount apart.

The only thing I can think of that might be different is the diameter of the rod (lower bracket)and opening that the rod slides into (top bracket/mount). One could be smaller than the other.
