Easy...You can buy anywhere from Konis to Sears replacement
struts. Make sure you replace the upper strut bearings along with
the struts. Yours are shot. The stock bearings usually only last
40-50k. Most of the tuners advertised in European Car carry stock
as well as poly replacements much cheaper than the dealer.
