The only other option is to spend a little bit more money and get a coil-over set-up.

Shame, perhaps it's a limited production run? I ran Koni yellows on my Civic years ago. They worked flawlessly.

Please understand that I am not posting this thread to say that Koni’s are crap. I know for a fact that Koni Yellows are a far superior shock at a great price. I got a bad shock. It is not the end of the world.

I just wanted to prevent someone from spending all the time installing them if the shock was leaking out of the box.

Please do not use this thread to assume that Koni Yellows are substandard.
