the box says 99 to up. i'm not sure what is different about the 95-98 accents, but i would like to know too. i'd buy a cheap older accent if the coilovers i have would fit.

How much do the springs lower the car and do you know their spring rate? I am looking for about 1 inch lower and a mild increase in rate over stock. How much do you want for the shocks and springs? How many miles on the shocks? Are they the Konis that fit the 99 Accent with 49MM struts?

If you look at the part numbers for Pedders shock absorbers for the X3 Excel 1.5 DOHC and LC Accent models, you will see that these too are the same as each other.

The part number for the earlier 1.5 SOHC X3 Excel is different to the DOHC ones as the SOHC model has a different diameter spring , and apart form the size of the spring base between the SOHC & DOHC X3 models, the shocks are the same.
