How do I get the old top half of my engine mounts out?

[warpig]

Anybody know how to get the top half of the engine mounts out without dropping the motor? I am almost sure there must be an easy way to do it but i suck at that sort of thing. Anybody with an easy way that works gets my sister's phone number!!!!

Easy? Not that I found.

Possible? Yup.

I removed the oil filter and got at 'em from the side. My 1/4" drive ratchet got one "click" of turning in the limited space available; I spun it off with my fingers after I got it loose enough.
