When the aftermarket starts making more parts for your car, it's a good sign.
Pedders has offered a coil-over conversion for the 2011-2013 Caprice PPV for a few years now. Years before 2011 because it's the same kit as the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8.
Recently they've begun selling MacPherson struts for use with the conventional springs.
They're a lot more expensive than the OEM Monroe's were, but they're making them at all.
The Monroe's are all bought up and out of production.
KYB still makes struts for the car, but only sells them in Australia. In fact, you have your choice of several brands in Oz... Almost as if the car was from Australia and there's a lot more of them on the road down-under.
I have purchased parts and tools from OZ in the past, some things are simply not available here but common "over there". Yes the shipping is a beast but I wanted the tool in question so paid it. Two years later, the tool manufacturer decided they would sell it in the U.S. after all...... and so it goes.
