With them out you can slide your headers in place no problem without removing anything. Once the headers have a couple bolts in them put the bmr mounts, tighten the bottom bolts and get the top ones hand tight, then lower the engine, tighten rest of the bolts and Bob's your uncle. Once you see how much play the factory mounts have you'll be glad you went with the bmr's. I took a video of the engine movement (when starting) before the mounts and after. Night and day difference. Can't find the video now though unfortunately.
One thing to note. BMR sends two different size bolts with the mounts. Make sure you use the right bolt in the right spot. It's pretty obvious but I still managed to do it wrong on the first mount.

I'm going to be doing this install on a lift at my friend's house, how would that process work on a lift? I mean other than of course installing them on the ground first and then lifting the car and doing the headers.
