Default Real quick 05 STI to 04 STI coilovers question

I remember when I had my megans on my 06 WRX they sent me a box that had the part numbers for the STI on it. I was worried so I emailed them and they said all of the kits for 02-06 WRX/STI were actually the same. I found a 05 STI+ kit thats used and I was wondering if anyone knew off hand that they would fit my 04 STI???

I'm kinda in a hurry cause the bid ends in a couple of hours


forgot to mention they are MEGAN COILOVERS - edit

I dont think it will fit. And you didnt specify which coilovers either.

Your 04 STI would use the same front strut as a WRX but 05 - 07 STIs will not and will not interchange with a 04 STI.

05 STi front struts (including megans) will not fit the 04 STi. The 02 and up WRX use the same clevis and bolt spacing as the 04 STi. In 2005 Subaru changed the knuckle and the clevis width along with the bolt spacing for the clevis changed. They did not make this change on the WRX.
