RJ, when I rotated them, I rotated them so the "C" would be down.. Well, the open end would be downward. Any reason?None, save for the fact that it was easier to rotate the wrench toward the motor, than it was to pull it away. Didn't have to brace myself against any plastic bodywork, lol.

Plus, instead of the wrench being stopped by the painted radiator support... it was stopped by the unpainted engine... as I had removed the engine cover before hand.

I have my Cs pointed upwards.. Like this : ^

I dont think It makes much of a diff, but like the above post says.. Its better to do it so if you slip off, you hit the unpainted metal.

It is a decent mod. Actually an awesome mod for the price.

I am happier with my poly mounts but that cost $60.
