I don't know if this was a good idea or not. I made a front transmission mount.

I had stuffed some rubber scraps in the mount and it made a big difference for a day...
Well it has been clunking and while I was at the local surplus store today I picked up some plastic. It's not as wide as the old rubber mount but I just want the forward and backward clunk to stop for now.
So it's a quick fix that I'll fix again in the spring when I replace the other rubber bushings in the front end.
I test drove it earlier and the clunk is gone! Now there is a more annoying rattle...
I can put up with the rattle for now. At least I don't think the engine and trans. are going to fall out when it down shifts.
It does shift nicer accelerating now.
I removed the old rubber thing and traced the inside of the mount hole. Then I cut it out and drew around it on the plastic, then used my jigsaw to cut it out.
Don't try this at home... I don't know if it will have any adverse effects on the car or not!
Here are some pictures:

I love DIY solutions and your fix is pretty cool, but you can get an upgraded replacement mount for $35.00. I just replaced mine today. The "clunk" I usually feel is gone from down shifting with the flappy paddles in "Manual" mode. Looking at the old mount I can see why the car felt that way. Big improvement.

Where did you get the upgraded replacement from? I used the Saab replacement part for mine and, while the clunking is less, there still seems to be a bit too much play on that OEM mount.

I got the mount at GenuineSaab.com.
