    im wondering if i could put the touring suspension on the 2005 prius, which was built in 9/04, im being offered a set on this forum and i would like to make sure that it would work on my prius before purchasing.

    im doing this because my passenger side strut/spring is damaged, from a accident when i purchased it salvaged.

    The Touring parts may fit, but what about the already damaged suspension area? Make sure no frame or sub-frame damage, the shop has to fix this first otherwise.

    The difference between Touring and non-Touring in the FRONT suspension is mainly the Sway Bar.

    How much are you paying for the Touring Suspension parts?

    Did you consider going Sportivo?

    150 bucks its worth it honestly in my opinion i found aftermarket for about 50-100 bucks. Also the frame damage has been repaired.
