I put my diff in, I pulled my diff out.
M3 engine and trans mounts installed. Very noticeable improvement. Wish I hadn't waited now. Diff mounts are next.

M3 engine and trans mounts are a great upgrade over the factory mounts. The M3 engine mounts are a harder rubber and are still fluid filled and the Trans mounts are just a harder rubber.
I had done this upgrade to both of my cars and enjoy the added benefit of having less engine/trans movement. It just feels firmer with them. I would recommend them.

I did not, had a shop do it. I know the trans mounts can be done pretty quick, not sure about engine. Probably nothing crazy either.
Vas covered the differences pretty well but left out my number one priority in picking them: they'll last longer because they're harder. Hopefully they'll be good 150k instead of 100k. They're basically the same price as the non-m ones, so there's really no reason not to.

I did them myself with the car on jackstands. Trans mounts are super easy and engine mounts are not difficult at all.
