If I understand correctly the mounts you are talking about, they are shaped the same way as the OE ones ... so you would measure from the part of the rubber that corresponds with the bottom of the metal ... the bottom of the "bell." I could be wrong though, as I'm not really sure I know what mounts you're talking about. Fortunately mine are OE so I used the graphic sixto provided.
