2012 Civic HF New Shocks?

Quick question for the brain trust.
My 2012 HF currently has almost 100k .
How long does the stock shocks last? I think after 100k its time to change them out.
If I go back to stock Honda OEM, what is the best place to purchase? Thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

They last until they leak or get soft and weak.
I never saw a good reason to replace them until such time as they have noticeable issues.
Some can outlast the cars they are bolted to.

I have my stock suspension for my 2007 Si sedan. Going on 235K miles! Though mostly highway. Depends on your driving and the roads too.
