How can you tell that? The boot is on there.

What kind of car are they leaning against?

He means the outside of the strut... (the silver part) would still be stock and the Koni stuff goes inside the stock housing ... he was wondering When they started to make a FULL replacement... which they obviously did !

And leaning up against a GOLF CART.... not a car...

I know they're inserts. I have them on my car. I was wondering how ecotecpower could tell wether or not they were inserts or a full replacement without being able to see the top of the cartridge.

It must be an older golf cart.

LOL @ you guys fighting over it.

They are Koni Yellows, And no they DO NOT make a full replacement. They are inserts. I Just painted them Silver, b/c ... well yellow's ugly. Hahaha plus it goes w/ my calipur color.

There was a joke when i sent them to some people (the pics) my room mate said look at that.. Koni Platniums.. It's a new line of struts (being silver in color) so i was screwing w/ some people after i took the pics. LOL they're just plain ole koni yellers painted silver.

And to answer the question, Eibach sportlines.
