Is the only difference in the FWD 850 front subframes the mounting holes for one engine mount?

I need to replace mine from a 95 850T and have found a 93' and 94' that are in good shape. Will there be any problems putting a subframe from one of those years in my car?

TIA

Should be the only difference. I did the same thing, replaced mine w/ a re-conditioned '94 one and all I had to change was the front motor mount.

If you can, try to find one like the style that you have on the car already. The earlier front motor mount that attaches to the older subframe is very bad about failing quite often.
