Attn. KEV, ? about Koni's

What exactly needs to be done to get 4th gen Koni struts to fit on our 5th gen's. I'm getting new springs next week and want to put Koni's on the front since I already have them in the back.

not much..
you have to modify the front struts..cut the housing to insert the Koni shocks. you also have to drill a hole on the bottom of the stock housing to secure the shocks.

the rear should bolt straight to the car without any problems.

Thanks for the replies. Check out the sticky for info about what to do for the fronts. If you want pictures, check out http://www.performanceix.com (and I believe http://www.maximadriver.com has info also).

If you have specific questions, give me a PM/email and I'll help you out.
