This is my 4th trans mount attempt

Does anyone know where to get a oem manual trans mount for a 2004 GTO? I have ordered 4 different mounts and I keep getting sent the offset bolt pattern, which is for a automatic.
GTOG8TA have sent me 2 wrong ones now. For the love of God….are these impossible to find?

GTOG8TA actually ordered the mount from rock auto. It came in a rock auto box. Wrong mount.
rockauto is a conglomerate of auto parts shops and warehouses that use the website to liquidate their 💩

i've gotten a lot of mismatched or damaged stuff. lots of those places are ran by loafers.
Sounds like you just need to get one from revshift then.
Pretty sure I just got my most recent one from Autozone? I guess piggybacking off of this what exactly is the difference between the manual and automatic mounts? I've done them in both my M6 car and my dad's A4 car and I remember them looking the same?

there are two different GM part numbers. which are both discontinued...

the aftermarket part numbers for auto and manual are also different.

so, they are not the same.

No I get that but I guess I should rephrase my question, what's actually different between the 2, I assume the bolt hole spacing?
If you don’t mind the extra vibes I put a Hinson in mine and it fit perfectly.
I dug around and found this on ebay, stating that it fits the manual transmission. Sure, it could be a typo, but it has a pic of the GTO, a T56 and a mount in the ad, so there's that.


I took that same part number and this appears to be the mfg website for Marmon/DEA. Their fitment guide at the bottom also says 04-06 GTO w/manual.


Lastly, that part number comes up as a cross-reference to the AC Delco version on Rock Auto. Apologies this is the same thing they shipped to you, but you didn't say exactly what you received via Rockauto. Still, the combination of these three links looks promising.


In closing, I save all of my old parts, usually in the box. If I can find it, I'll post up what I've used in the past (it wasn't OEM)

The problem is what is in the picture is not the actual item you are buying and what is in the box is not always what it is supposed to be. I went round and round trying to buy stock style solid rubber motor mounts and I kept receiving boxes marked with the correct part number but with the wrong part in the box which were oil filled mounts. I bought five different mounts from four different sellers and only one was a solid rubber mount. I could never find a pair of them so I returned them all and gave up.

I agree to some extent. I had the same problem, but eventually got a pair of motor mounts (that ended in 'S', for solid) on the 2nd try but luck can be a fickle mistress.

My point in suggesting he at least consider what I posted come back to the old saying, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take". I think he should take more shots at it.
