I changed my front shocks to KYBs and find they are really good. A lot more reliable than the originals. Going to get the alignment done next week as tyres are showing some wear on the outside.

OEM ones are KYB!

I think its the Super G ones you need - do a search for KYB rear shocks or something and there should be plenty of posts.

I changed my rears and not had any problems. Got from those people too and are the cheapest around. Good reliable source too.

There is a knowledge base artical on fitting too somewhere.
