i am 100 % sure the fronts are the same but not sure for the rears. i think the rears are the same but cant promise that. i actually got the front struts and springs for the 5th gen on my car right now. i was trying to get my hands on rear set but did not come up with any yet. the only difference i found is the brake line mounting setup is a little diff but is not a major prob.
hope this helps, dg --------------------  |
