Bill, I just tried to put those part numbers in through your site and it comes back as not a valid part number. Should I just call you?
I hope you check this thread.

I would NEVER have expected that pricing from a dealership, even with a CEG discount! Nice going Bill! I might buy a set just to HAVE for future use on the Zetec...
I'd like to know how firm the valving is though. Won't matter for the Zetec, as that is my daughters car & she likes a softer ride, but if I ever want to replace SE or Mystique struts, I'd like to know if they'll perform comparable to stock.

Very cool. Good to know.
But I wonder. Did Ford really build a specific strut to have a lower price? Or are these possibly just the regular ones with a different part number so they can sell them (maybe have too many in inventory?)?

I don't think I'd care. OEM quality for the struts on these cars is pretty good. Only a bump in performance moves me away from dealer replacements.

I will set up some special links today so you can buy them from the site. The site uses 3rd party information and they are not always up to date.
