Time will tell that it is a mistake to replace the F-14 Tomcat with the F-18 Super Hornet as the carriers first line of defense.

I do not believe it will. I have a coupe and there isn't access to the top of the struts like there is in the hatch's.

Only rear suspension I can think of is the sway bar

shipping to canada might cost alot.

i asked today at the dealer, it's around 90 bucks.

if it doesn't fit, u got dibs, and i will take 10-15 off the original price plus shipping. how does that sound for you?

here's what i realised.

the rear strut can be fitted onto the HB is cause there is access to the rear from the back when u pop open the trunk,

however, those that owns a coupe claims or says that there is no rear access from the coupe.

the convertible however is made from the coupe, the top was cut from the coupe, converting a coupe into a convertible.

and there is access to the rear struts...

will be buying one from the dealer today, and hopefully it will fit base on these info

Specification convertible coupe hatchback
Wheelbase, in. 99.9 99.9 99.9
Overall Length, in. 177.0 177.0 174.0
Overall Width, in. 68.9 68.9 68.9
