Thank you, that's why I was looking for a used one from an S and hopefully it would be about the same condition as the other 3. The car has 107k miles and looks like the struts are original. The car drove great and struts were still fine.
And yes, totally understand about not rushing. Was just hoping to get back on the road today.

I would caution you about mixing and matching parts. If you replace one side, I would recommend replacing the other. If you don't, usually it will cause premature wear to both sides. Also, I would not rush this process. If you make a bad choice, or get a bad part, you will likely wind up having to do it over again. Just my 2c.
