Anyone using Accord struts?
I've seen posts about it but no one has confirmed this will work. Could anyone who has Accord struts in his car confirm this? I need mine replaced and costs over 200 EACH to get the parts from acura dealership. I told the mechanic to use Accord parts, he says the part number maybe the same but there is some difference. I need something I can convince him with!
Thanks!
Thanks!

Sorry, maybe my question was too specific 
Could someone just tell me if those kind of struts will work on my 2.5TL?

What do you mean by what else can you do so it doesnt drive funny?
yes you can use stock struts but with a drop like that they will blow easily. I'd recommended you get a new set because if you are going to pay for the install this way it'll only be paid once. If you change your springs with stock struts and they blow you need to buy new struts and pay for install again. You can't go wrong with a koni yellow struts but the downside is they cost about 500 a set. So you could look for kyb agx or tokico illuminas.
