Does anyone have any tips on installing this? I got the mount in but cannot get the bolt going through the metal shaft to line up on the other side. My friends Dad and Grandfather tried at it for 2 hours and nothing. Tomorrow we're going to loosen the bolts on the transmission and see if we can get the holes to line up that way. Any help would be very thankful.
 
You have the engine on a hoist or jack? Try loosening the other mount bolts and playing with the jack or hoist to get the hole to line up.
 
We got it eventually. We ended up taking of the bracket that attached to the transmission and were able to get it in place out of the car. Now I just need to another bolt because one got stripped because the mount wasn't lined up right with the body. Went to Mazda to get the bolt they ordered for me and it was the wrong bolt. Does anybody know the part number for the bolts that hold the mount to the body?
