   I have just bought a powerflex lower engine mount and was just wondering how hard it is to fit as I would like to do it myself. Is there a guide or anything to watch out for?
   By the way the mount has already been pressed into another bracket/support so is just simply a case of unbolting the old one and fitting the new one?

   Cool i'll give it a go then. Prob a noob question but does the engine need supporting? Heard people say on some cars it does and some it doesn't, not sure about the saxo.

   no need to support the engine, the other two mounts will have it. Just obviously you'll need to swing it into position a little
