Ive never seen the underside of an auto before, post a pic? I believe the mounts are all the same 2 piece setup. 1 bracket off the trans and 1 part (the mount) that connects this trans bracket to the subframe. I'm betting GM used the same mount and just put the correct trans bracket on for auto/manual.

Didn't know that. I ended up making my own with urethane
Do you also have the upper engine mount? And how complex was installation?

It's easy.
Basically it is:
Jack under oil pan to support engine.
Remove intake box
Unbolt from engine
Reverse to install.
And the trans mount is equally easy?

Trans mount you dont even need to support the engine/trans. I would highly recommend doing so, but it isnt necessary.

I know the tread is a couple months old, but I have a Sonic 1.4 turbo automatic and the tranny mounts do work. It is the Upper engine mounts that are different. I purchased a ZZP upper mount, and they were not sure at the time if it worked on an auto, the answer is No.. They refunded my money fully with no problems! (they look very similar but bolt up completely different)

Looks like zzp makes an upper trans mount. Not upper engine mount that we see?
The upper engine side mount for both manual and auto are the same.
Maybe you tried to install their upper trans mount, on the engine side?
Or you knew it was the upper trans mount and it is manual only, as the upper trans mounts are different?
