The lower trans mount is a torque rod rather than a real suppport member. Look at eeuroparts picture for a visual- it's often called a "dog bone."
It links the front of the trans to the frame and is easily visible from below just left of midline once you raise the car about as much as you would for an oil change. WIC says to loosen the mounting bracket bolts to allow "wiggle room" to apply the new link, but I did not find that necessary. So, it's one bolt and one bolt/nut to Remove & Replace
I do have a picture (not posted) of the rubber webbing within the link that appeared torn, allowing lots of slop/movement.
Now that I've seen this once and have the right tools at hand, I think the first three could be done in about an hour.
