Preassembled Strut Assembly

Is there a reasonable place to get the complete unit? My springs are broken and color coded 3-red, 1-grey which I can get, but I'm thinking it would be easier to just replace the whole unit. There are endless places that sell whole units, but there's never mention of the color coding; then of course the whole issue of quality has to be delt with. Any help is much appreciated.

Have you looked into the companies here who support the site and know these cars inside and out? IDParts is one and there are many others. You can find more names in the vendor threads below. I have done lots of business with IDParts and have always been happy. Some of the other vendors as well. As a general rule they are all pretty good.
