Blown Motor Mount - dealers have no appointments until Feb 23

[John94]

Managed to record a video of the engine while power braking. First in reverse then in drive.
Appears to be a decent amount of movement... does it appear that my mechanic made the right assessment? tried to find the motor mount but man is there a lot of crap in the way

Hey flip! Any chance you also could share the procedures for the 2.3L LH side motor mount install? I just replaced the RH side one myself, but the LH side seems to be a bit more tricky. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
