Default Snub mount guidance

I'm looking to upgrade my snub mount, but I'm not sure which one to buy.

I've searched the forums and it seems everyone recommends the APR. However, everyone that has an APR says that it causes a lot of vibrations at startup and idle.

Is there a better one I can buy that won't have these additional vibrations but will still offer performance over the rubber OEM part? Thanks

You can look for one from GreedSpeed. I think PureMS.com carried them. The automatics tend to vibrate more than a manual at idle with the APR but you definitely will notice more than with a stock snub regardless of which trans is in the car.

I think I'll go with that one then.

I was looking at the DIYs and it looks like an easy job. Some people are saying that you don't have to remove the bumper to get to it, others are saying you are. Anyone have any experience putting the mount in w/out removing the bumper, obviously I'd prefer to do it that way. It looks like easy access as soon as I jack the car up, don't see why I would need to remove the bumper to get to it.
