Hi,
I need to replace one McPherson strut assembly (so I should do both), here in Norway it´s hard to get non-Toyota sets. I can get a full set for both sides for £117.46 + £90.05 + Norwegian customs toll of 25% so it is about £270 for both sides inc. sway bar links and a 10 year warranty. BUT I have been reading the feedback for the above seller, not good enough to take a chance all the way from the US.
Is there a UK seller I can be put in contact with that has a good reputation please.
cheers, hope you can help. John

So are you wanting genuine parts or alternatives John? Here in Norway my 2007 RAV4 D4D is worth almost nothing, so non-genuine will do. I had a quote for replacing both complete struts from the local Toyota dealer, 18,000 kroner/£1345 each side!

There's lots of RAV4s in the USA. I found in the past that its the time it takes to get stuff shipped from USA. The 2 links above show the complete strut as out of stock.
