I'm in need of new struts and I'm looking around to get the best deal. I found a set of 4 on ebaymotors for a good price, but the picture they show is of a single strut and a shock. GP's dont use shocks do they? I emailed the seller to see if it was just a stock photo. I dont want to spend the money only to find out I bought something that wont work. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2000-2004...1QQcmdZViewItem

That seems kind of cheap for 4 struts...I wouldn't bother with it. It seems strange they wouldn't post pictures of all 4 struts...

i've talked to a bunch of people who've purchased the GR2s off ebay, exact same strut you'd get from anywhere else for more $$$. And I'd bet it's just a stock photo. The part numbers listed on the auction are for 2 front struts and 2 rear struts.

Just put in some Monroe Sensatrac Quick Assemblies in the rear today. AutoPartsDirectToYou.com is the ebay seller. The guys there are nice. Warehouse out of FL and NY. They have other parts that are not listed when I spoke to the guy in person today. Pretty cheap too. Put them in a 99 gtp coupe.

He has those listed as 2000-2004 struts, did the strut design change from 97-99 to 00-03? and did they carry that design over into 04 and stop? His numbers seem kinda screwy.

97-03's should be the same. I don't think they carried over to the 04+'s. I think the 04's to present have a different design.
