Exclamation Need help ASAP - will factory struts from a 2003 fit a 2001???
I am in the process of replacing my suspension with stock - removing the KW's. I can get a great price on some 2003 stock struts - complete, but according to majestic honda's web site, the P/N's for the complete strut assembly are different. Additionally, the strut part no's are different as well...

Does ANYONE know if they will fit??? 		To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

the only change made was where the holes for the two big bolts are....they're wider

edited for correctness.

They will fit, but the mount holes are 16mm not 14mm, so they might slide out of camber.

You gotta drill the crash bolt holes. Its easier to just buy 03+ struts.

yeah, backwards, buy 01/02s. The holes in the 03s are too big and they'll move.

Yeah, no prob. I just picked up some 2002's with about 30k miles on for $225 shipped (for all 4 complete)....I figure no point to chance anything.

Thanks for the help.

Speaking of which, if anyone is interested - I plan on selling my KW coilovers once I get these things on!
