Two significant constant noises occurring (coming from, I assume, right front wheel where mount bearing greased as the fix): very high pitched whistling sound and hard metal-grinding sound. Still some 'crunching' sound & instability on right with right turn. Called mechanic about the grinding-metal & whistling sounds. Mechanic not available to look at car again till tomorrow. Asked if safe to drive it--he said he didn't know.
Rock Auto offered an immediate refund or to ship new mounts out right away.
What do you think?

unfortunitely your in a messed up situation,but if the original mechanic
will install the parts for free i'd say go for it. some how i believe he may want to charge you because you supplied the parts!!not much you can proove so as long as its a discounted price let him do it.just let him no/understand you have to realign car again!!maybe he'll be more understanding.
good luck
BTW if you get a bad feeling just cut your losses & go some where else
