Rear Strut
I know where the front strut goes, and now I have an idea where the rear ones go, which should you get first? The front or rear? I have a 90 Lx 5 speed 1.8L DOHC. Would getting them both at the same time be better? Or does it even matter?

seeing as how the sedan design itself makes the rear pretty solid to start with, the front bar is a better choice, but of course both are better.
the rear bar fits under the rear deck and attaches to the strut towers. It's a tight fit, but thats where it goes.
