98 SE Motor Mount Question

Greetings Gurus,

I have a 98 SE with a broken front motor mount.
I purchased the replacement mount today and as I started in on the job, I discovered that it's not as straight-forward as I thought it would be. The bottom nut was easy as you know. The top bolt closest to the driver's side was a bit slow going, but not too bad. The part I'm stuck at is the remaining bolt (the one closest to the passenger's side). PLEASE tell me there's a way to get to this bolt w/o having to remove the AC Comp. I've searched the posts in this forum, but none are specific to my particular car and I'm not sure if the info posted for other years is relevant to my vehicle.

Thanks to the mods and frequent posters herein for their ever-helpful advice and patience with us barely-technical types ;)

Two things.

First, you WILL have to remove the compressor to replace that mount.

Second, if one mount is broken, the others will usually follow soon behind.

If you do not replace the other two, be very sure to loosen them they don't break while raising the engine.
