I can give you a review of KYB G2's...I put G2 stuts and shocks on the '92 T/A and I'm happy. It no longer drags the the air dam going out of the driveway! Handles well, but I don't really push that car.

I think I paid a shade under $250 for all 4 struts and shocks.

Did you pay to have the struts installed? My car has stock shocks but new OEM replacement struts up front. Now 7 years old anyways.

Thanks for the recommendation, those are the shocks/struts I have decided on as well. Mine still has the factory shocks/struts in place at 42,000 miles. I'm sure the years have not been good to them.
 
Got a flush head unit kit (for my aftermarket JVC radio/CD unit) coming my way for TTA 1078 ... got the photo of it yesterday from the manufacturer ... will be a nice clean flush install if it fits as planned that is :-)

I'll post photos and links when I got it all installed ... also got the PAC SWI-JACK unit to use the steering wheel radio controls and that all works fine as I sorted the adapter and things out already.

No, I installed the the struts myself, since they don't use the captive spring other struts do.

Only thing special needed was an accurate 1/2" torque wrench as the lower bolts/nuts need to be properly torqued pretty tight (maybe #165, if I recall).

But I have changed the front springs and let me tell you...that was as close to death I have come to while working on any car.

I finally had to pay to have them "banded" and I installed them that way.
That is something I will gladly pay someone else to do.
