If you want to do it "properly", spend the 30 bucks on a two-part pourable urethane. You can get your choice of hardness (durometers 60 through 90), and it gap-fills better than the winow adhesive. Mounts will be out of the car for 2-3 days, as was originally posted.

This is nothing new, at all. Ask the Honda crowd. Reusing the OEM mount/housing is also standard procedure-- the ES inserts for toher cars basically zip-tie into the OEM mounts. Replacing the mount with a urethane bushed mount, as I've seen on this forum somewhere, will increase NVH a bunch-- think change dancing on the dash, and drinks foaming out of the cupholders.

Choosing a two-part with a lower durometer, between 60-70, will stiffen up the mounts without compromising daily driveability.

You obviously don't know how bad the tC wheel hops off the line because of its soft @ss motor mounts thanks to its cousin the camry
