Or...

You may also check this store.

They have online catalogs, with exploded views, that are very detailed.

I think that the fact that you have a 4-banger engine, as opposed to the 6-banger, should make no difference with respect to the suspension parts.

Good luck!

Thanks,

I ended up ordering the accumulators, a suspension filter and a rear hatch strut from ***************, they were helpfull and seemed to know their stuff.

For ease of ordering parts in the future, what car that was available in North America would match my wagon body and which car would match my 2.3l engine?

For example I need a windsheild and the glass shop of course has no idea what a 230te is, and I didn't know what I could tell them for a model that they would have in their system.

Thanks!
