Default Rear Shockers have had it!

I have a k plate Wrx Turbo Saloon Import and back end has been banging for a couple ofweeks, took it to the garage this morning and it's confirmed my rear shocks are stuffed.

Do I get some replacement shocks from a breakers yard or new ones???? Any comments or suggestions on where to try bearing in mind it's an import I'mnot sure if fitment is same as Uk cars?????

Big Thanks

Dave

I think you can get KYB's fairly easily but I can't remember the web address.

Not too sure of the fitment but I got my rear shocks for a UK 99 from www.buypartsby.co.uk - cost about £45 + vat if I remember correctly and they were KYB.
