Re: strut mount caps

If you are near a junkyard the Firebird and Camaro ones are the same. Use a small screwdriver to pry off (they are made of thin plastic; they will bend easy)

Re: strut mount caps

If they were there before I would go back and make them replace or if they can find the one they took off

Re: strut mount caps

Thats why they didnt put them on I thought you just replaced the struts you may need to contact Movetech and see what they have most aftermarket mounts look cool so you dont need any covers

Re: strut mount caps

Has anyone found covers that will fit the Monroe strut mounts? I just replaced a broken RH mount on our '92 RS driver with a Monroe 90-1923 only to find that the OE cap is too large to fit into the new mount. Its only cosmetic, but I'd lke to have covers.
