Damn...those things look like they are made out of thin aluminum. Rattling would be the least of my worries with them.

I have the front and rear KSPEC mount on my car. The vibration isn't bad at all. My rear view is perfectly stable. They made a HUGE difference in my wheel hop problem.

I have the front and rear mounts on too as my stock ones were shot. at idle you can feel the vibration and the rear view mirror can get a little blurry at times but nothing like as bad as I was expecting

the kspec ones arent poured into the mount, its a separate bushing thats been pressed into the stock mount
