I am needing to get my struts replaced on my Civic DX. I am having trouble finding struts that are compatable with this trim, but I am finding a ton on the EX trim. If I get struts for the EX trim, are they compatable with the DX trim?

Thanks for taking the time to help me out.

Below are the struts I am thinking about purchasing:

I am almost quite certain they are the same struts but....i'll look a little further and see what I can find. It is a super easy job replacing theses as a packaged unit. I replaced all the springs on my 2008 EX this past weekend, meaning I had to disassemble the strut to replace the springs with lower, stiffer springs. IT rides awesome now! Cornering has improved big time. And it doesn't bounce when I hit rough spots on the highway.

Yeah, my mechanic said it would be like $550 to replace. Spending $280 on these makes me feel happy inside. I went ahead and bought them and will be putting them in tomorrow. if they don't work, I'll let you know.

Thanks for replying!

Is your car a two door or 4 door?
