Default Motor Mount

Hi
Can someone tell me how hard it is to change the lower driver side motor mount on a 1998 Civic EX. Mine is broken and the dealer want $190.00 to change it out .
Any help would be appreciated.

Part # 50842-SR3-984

You talking about the torque mount? Shouldn't be too hard, just get in there and give it a good look. Can't be more than a few bolts

if you have to replace it just put a jack under the oil pan and barely prop the engine up so your driver side motor mount isnt supporting the engine then take the lower motor mount off and replace it with the old one and remember to torque it down. then release the jack and the engine should be good to go
