Ive bought a set of Hardrace 'Street' Engine & Gearbox mounts to fit next week, any tips on the best way to go about fitting them? Doesnt look like a lot of room down there :D

Gearbox mount is easy mate jack the car up then use another jack to take the weight of the box, unbolt and replace the mount .
Passenger side mount is easy to replace also once again just raise the engine a bit to take the weight with a jack then unbolt and replace . Driver side is the one I had trouble with as you say not much space in there. Ended up gettin it on my mechanics ramp unbolted it and used a crow bar to prise a big enough gap to swap it out

^^ Pretty much the way to go, engine mounts, all I did was get the car on a hoist and put a bar under the engine and lower the car so the bar raised the engine enough to get the mounts in after undoing the original mount bolts.
