Cannot be recommended for BMW E46

I bought a KYB SB107 strut boot for my 2002 BMW 325xi. I was totally let down by the KYB bellows, the OEM bellows opened up further and covered the entire exposed shock piston, while the KYB bellows covered nothing. It doesn't even touch the top of the loaded shock. I think at different times the compression is enough for them to hit each other, but at different times dirt and debris will definitely hit that bellows. Download vs. OEM download is correct but doesn't make up for the error of this

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

I reused my trunk OEM

I bought this cover to replace the OEM trunk and shock absorbers on my 2007 Aveo sedan. I had already swapped out the stock springs for H&R lowered sport springs, so I bought 343423 KYB GR-2 shocks to improve the ride and matching boots. OR SO I THOUGHT! I contacted KYB before purchasing to make sure it was compatible and a support rep confirmed this. However, when I received the boot the baffle that came with it didn't work unless I wanted to cut it, nor was I impressed with the quality of the

Will work on a 2002 Accord with modification

KYB SB107 is the recommended C-pillar cover for the 2002 Honda Accord Excel-G. So I ordered a pair of SB107 boot kits with KYB 341258 Excel G stays for my EX V6 coupe (for C-pillar work). The photo suggests that you will receive a black harmonica. What you actually receive does not match the product photo. The SB107 actually consists of a black bellows (dust cover) and a white fender. All right, that's fine. The quality of the materials is good. The installation instructions tell you to firstโ€ฆ

Pros
  • OE design and quality
Cons
  • Safety

Some assembly. and modification. necessary.

Some of the reviews I read made me think people don't learn its application well enough. I made sure to go straight to the KYB catalog and find the correct parts according to the manufacturer. I'm here to tell you that your catalog is a bit different. For the rear of the '94 BMW 525i you will need this boot/fender for use with your Excel G damper part number 341081. The problem is that the stem of this shock is larger at the top than the fender opening. Didn't think parts from the sameโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Protects the top seal and bushing
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
