My car has covered 60k (MY03) and now needs its 4th set of rear dampers.
(the originals, + 2 replacement sets under warranty+ need changed again now)

If you are out of warranty KYB do these for avout £80+ VAT each
and the only difference I can find is the colour they are painted
(KYB make the OE ones for subaru)

The fronts were getting rattly and I changed them to KYBs and they are performing fine (and silently) for a fraction of the the price subaru charge.

I was told that KYB do not make rear dampers for a 03 UK STI.
