I want to go with HR Springs but it seems like KYB is the the only strut/shock available for our cars except for Koni $$$. I need a list of whats needed to do it right ....... thanks

yes they are side specific. those ones are for the rear. for the front inserts it doesnt matter unless u get the full strut assembly.
2 front 334378-334379 complete struts, 2 Rear 334125-334126 365092 front cartridge shocks -------------------- God made man....
Everything else... Made in China  |
