My 2002 Honda civic has 126,000 miles on the original oem struts. Those are $170 each at the dealer so $350 for 2 oem front struts & that does not even include the $500 of labor. An independent mechanic will do the labor for $180 with free alignment so if I buy cheap struts I would pay $280 total. Your thoughts?
I drive the car 5,000 miles a year.
