WTB: left and right strut assembly's

can anyone help me find these?

i went to get my car aligned. they said their leaking and need to be changed. he quoted me at 700 dollars and some change. just cant afford that right now. my father in law is going to help me, more or less do it for me probably. i just need to buy them.

Check ebay man.I seen them on there for like 40 bucks.I dont know anybody in there right mind that would spend $625 for used stock struts with 15k on them.I dont know if the $700 bucks included the struts,labor and a realignment or what,but thats still too expensive.Do them yourself,its a 123 job.Just buy or rent a spring compressor,there cheap.

I was told it is a very easy job and at most it should cost me around $150 to buy the struts and have them compressed.

The $700 dollar quote I believe was just struts and labor.

For that price you can get koni's $600 shipped to your door. So is the dealer doing these under warranty?
