Gotcha. Thanks. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.
Good call on the lubricant though - I've heard too many horror stories of corrosion - especially scary in the climates that deal with snow and salt covered roads.
Good luck on the install! Please post pics when you're done.

I don't. Mine are fine right now but they have 62k on them and I'm taking all the time to install V3's. It's a small price to pay to install new mounts so i don't take the chance of the old ones failing in the next few years.
- Just a rule of thumb to replace the mounts when replacing struts!

Dammit, my springs came in on Saturday and now I'm like 
- should I install them or wait for the rims? Not to mention, I may actually be getting rid of my car soon... jeez, so much pressure...

Maaan! You know how many times I tried getting rid of this car? 
it just keeps following me home hahaha
But yes, of course, you're right. I'll be looking around at some deals and seeing if it would make sense for me to trade it now or maybe keep it a little longer... we'll see what happens...
