I'm about to install some KYB GR2 front struts on my 95 SE with the factory springs. I know I need to replace the strut mounts/bearings/boots when I do so. I've read the stickies about it and I didn't get a confirmative answer. Some people were saying the aftermarket mounts, bearing and boots like KYB or TRW were good and others were saying they failed after 6 months.

Should I just go with OEM parts here or are the aftermarkets ones fine?

i just recently had to change the bearing and mount on one side (178k miles or so). i didn't know to change them when i changed the struts. the shocks were changed at 100k miles or so. you should probably just change them now so you won't have to go back and do it later. i went with oem bearing and mount.
