Just thought I'd post in here, in the off chance that someone has a set of upgraded engine mounts for sale. Don't fancy paying big bucks for new ones.
Am I right in saying the engine mounts for a prelude and CL1 Accord Euro R are the same?

I did the same, filled them with sikaflex. Worked a treat.
About 4 years later I swapped back to OEM mounts and the car felt a million times better, smoother and more driveable.
If the car is daily or mainly road going, upgrade with caution.

Uprated engine mounts is the number 2 worst mod I have ever done. Went back to brand new OEM and it's perfect.

I'd be surprised if the accord engine mounts are the same as the prelude.
Just within the prelude family, there are differences within the gens (rear mount) and auto/manuals (gearbox mount) too.
Look at the part numbers on lings to be sure.
