Default 2004 wrx rear suspension strut help..

Just need some confimation....

I need a suspension strut/leg/shock or whatever you want to call them for the drivers side rear of a WRX 2004
Now the problem is mine is an April build and i beleive the blobeye changed at some point after to the blobeye facelift with different interior and different suspension and steering wheel. I thought it changed june 2005 but not sure.. Can anyone please confirm? Possibly june 2004?

Also im being told that all 2002 to 2005 suspension for a wrx will fit but i don't think thats correct either as the springs range when replaced were 2003- June 2004 and after or before these dates were different.... Please help... As im being told all sorts by different sellers and dont want to order incorrectly.

Thanks

I have exactly what you're looking for, see forsale link below, £60 delivered. It is made by KYB who make the OEM dampers and fits all Blob WRX saloons including yours.

Top Mounts differ between Bug & Blob/Hawk. Hence they need different struts. However, the top mounts can be fitted to all models....

So if yo uhave Bug top-mounts, you can only fit Bug struts....but you cann fit Blob top-mounts to a Bug and then use Blob struts....
