Is suggest a factory one, lexus of south Atlanta where I bought mine was only $94. Almost went with beck/arnley but a tech I know talked me out of it. This was a picture of mine after 90k miles and while I can't help you with a diy, most places only charge around $200-350 to replace both not including tranny mount

The tech said not only not last as long, it won't isolate the vibrations very well. He said the ebay ones don't last very long and for about $40-50 more you could have 2 factory ones. I'd i was selling the car id get the cheaper ones but I figured it was only a few more for the factory ones which I've had my car for a while and when these mounts were in good shape, the car really was incredibly smooth

what did u mean. I haven't buy any mounts cause I will like to know u guys experiences or regrets from eBay mounts or Berney mounts. Obviously my mechanic told me to get the oem mounts. But I was thinking to do a little more research. So I bought them on ebay and no regrets at this point right?

All, I was able to get the motor mounts swapped a few weekends back.
Probably ~3 hours from start to finish. I discovered a much easier way to get these out than dropping the subframe. I had to slide the alternator and AC compressor forward, then access was easy.
I made a video and posted it on my youtube channel "Nolan Motorsports" and the video is called "Lexus GS Motor Mount Replacement - Lexus GS400 (1UZ-FE)".
No special tools were required.
