Subaru bilstein struts?

Postby mx5lover » Wed Dec 07, 2011 3:45 pm

Hello,
I went to a wreck this afternoon and bought a set of used bilstein for my na6.
when I got home and took out for a look, I found the front struts are may not for
the mx5, there is a Subaru print on the shocks,the srping is STI and the top hats
also looks a bit different, I think it is the shop gave me the wrong one for the front.
Here is some pics, help me to define them pls.
I am going to return them if they are't the correct one.

Shock says "SUBARU" and springs say "STI", so it seems you should be taking them back.
