Default replacing motor mounts (Honda 1996 civic)

Hi,

so i have been hearing excessive noise when i shift on my automatic. I replaced the transmission mount on the passenger side and it did reduce some of the noise but some is still there. I didn't have to go under the car to replace that mount and thank god because i am really nervous about trying to pry loose a bolt with me under the car. my question is should the other (four???) motor mounts be just as easy to replace? for the transmission mount all i had to do was remove the air intake to get at it. will i have to possibly go under the car for the other ones or have to remove really complicated things to get at them?

By the way if anyone needs to change the passenger side transmission mount i can pretty much walk you through it step by step now :-)

If your car is stock height and the job doesn't require taking the wheels off, ramps are the way to go for working under the car safely.

All other mounts are fairly simple, with exception to the rear mount. That is a pain to access due to it's location.
