    Hello

    After replacing both front struts on my 2010 Prius I now have noise and real hardness on the front end.
    The struts are after market parts and came complete for easy fitment. anyone ideas on this problem

    I used those as well from ebay for $179 delivered. They worked perfectly. Maybe you got some bad ones? Mine also included the top mount.
