urgently need engine mount, where to get one?

Postby Dirtbag » Mon Jul 17, 2006 1:43 pm

My car is in getting clutch replaced, mechanic just rang told me rear engine mount is shagged, rang Ilam Toyota and they said it would be overnight, but I urgently need it today, before 3ish, anywhere else in Christchurch that would sell these?

Or would it be alright to put in a 2nd hand one from a wrecker for a while?

2nd hand should provide a temporary solution untill you can get new ones.

Just make sure they are still in good condition, no cracks etc.
