Electric Strut Replacement ?

I have an '87 Maxima with the electric struts. After 140,000 miles of Houston potholes, they are totalled. Places like Pep Boys tell me that new electrics will run $600... apiece! Conventional struts for a Maxima are less than $50 apiece.
What I need to know is can I install conventional struts in my Maxima? Do I need some sort of adapter for this, and where can I buy them? Or is there a conventional strut made to fit the electric mounts?
Thanks in advance,

You can use your strut mounts for non adjustable struts. However make sure they are not cracked. Also those cheap struts will make your car handle worse than before. Your car will lean alot more and cornering speeds will be alot less.
