Greeting from one greater Seattleite to another. (I am on the Eastside though.)

Hopefully before blaming the rear struts or strut mounts on the noise, they have ruled out the rear swaybar link joints. Much less labor and part cost to change those links out than to change the rear struts and mounts. It's also not a good sign IMO when mechanics throw parts at a problem without proper diagnosis, IMO.

I just changed the struts on my '01 with 110k miles, and the strut mounts all looked to be in good shape, FWIW.

At least you'll get some fresh and new shocks out of the deal. Best of luck and hope you get a good opportunity after she's all fixed up to enjoy some of the nice "top down" weather we've been getting lots of recently!
