I have a korea built (VIN starts with K) 2018 Elantra SE

I cannot for the life of me find front struts that fit.

Can someone offer some help on what struts will fit a 2018 Elantra SE (Korea Built)??

Thank you SO much

I'm guessing you have the 1.6l turbo because that's the only thing RockAuto shows as being Korean built.

I have the 2.0L and I bought Korean made fcs struts off partgeek.com. it says they are for the sport model. Will they fit my SE? Thank you

Not sure myself but the Hyundai parts guy said that the abs sensor housing is different.

I bought korea built sport struts and they did fit my 2018 elantra se 2.0L

I would think that both would be the same for parts as it would be more economically more efficient
