KYB Suspension Shock Absorber Mount P/N:SM5656
Take the harshness out of every rear bump with the KYB shock mount SM5617, a rear upper mount that isolates the top of the rear shock absorber from the body. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2006-2011 Hyundai Azera, 2006-2010 Hyundai Sonata, 2006-2010 Kia Optima, 2007-2009 Kia Amanti, 2007-2010 Kia Magentis, and 2007-2012 Kia Rondo — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Old, hardened insulators transmit noise and vibration into the cabin; this mount replaces them with fresh material designed for the application.
If a hardened or cracked rear upper mount is the source of clunking, vibration, or noise over bumps, replacing it addresses that worn component.

Should I replace both rear mounts at once?
