1992 W140 motor mount question

The 300SD needs some new mounts.

1. I noticed that there is a huge difference in price between the available brands. Any insight on the $122 Febi vs the $65 Rein, vs the $45 URO mounts?

2. How difficult a job is this? I assume that I just need to jack up the benz, remove the bolt from mount to the engine, lift the engine slightly with hoist, and then unbolt the existing mounts, replace and rei-install. probably 3 hours max?

Sound about right?

thanks again
