Just didn't have a tube on hand

I would have used silicone as it would have been much more compliant as you said, but I just didn't have any fresh tubes available to pack it in.
So just for expediency, I used hot glue, which is much stiffer. I probably ended up with a poly equivalent using the hot glue. I also put some strips of tire sidewall rubber under the mount support, which further limited any movement away from center.
I could probably remove the hot glue material and use the silicone for a more OEM like feel.
It's probably close to a rigid mount the way it is, but the extra vibration doesn't bother me enough to do anything more with it yet.
Just that I just bought the mount from eeuroparts and feel like I should use it just because.
