2005 RL Struts

Senior Moderator
007, pardon a dumb question: I always thought that pretty much any setup with the spring encircling the shock was a McPherson strut. But I also know our cars have the venerated double wishbones. So, what's the difference? The geometry of the pivoting members attached to the bottom of the spring/strut?
The coil over only refers to the spring over the strut, so while a Macpherson strut is a coilover, a coilover doesn't have to be a Macpherson. Similar to a square and a rhombus.

Out of curiosity, I called two local Honda dealerships. The first one said they wouldn't do it, which was kind of curious. The second quoted me $1799, so it's a bit less.
That's why I asking if other people have done it through a dealership and what price they were paying.
