Konis on shot struts.

Couple of questions here,
i think i kno the answer to this but want to make sure,
It does not matter that my struts are completely shot, i can still use konis as im not really using any of the mechanical parts of the strut rite?

also, are there any other options other than Fe5 or coilovers for struts?

Thanks!

You can use them. You're only reusing the housing, none of the internals.

i think you have to cut something on the front to make the koni's fit into the stock strut housings. not 100% sure.

i may be selling my fe5 setup soon...
