Hi  Rick and All:
I installed the KYB #KG5511 on the rear of the 300H, and they  are just fine. 
 
Use tested on the way up and back to the Spring meet  in Allentown.  I have 
installed the same on my 300F now under  restoration.  As far as I am 
concerned, 
they fit perfectly and  performed fine----even on old I-95 at 80mph!   I used 
the KG4507  on the front of both cars.  Of course, the lower mounting 
"shackle"  
has to be ground narrower to fit the car.  Just be careful not to  hold the 
shock to the grinder long enough to get the rubber(?) bushing too  hot. I am 
sure 
that would damage it.  I kept a container of water  handy for frequent 
dipping 
to keep the temperature down.  Hope this  helps a little.   300ly, Gil 
Cunningham    
ps:  Oh yes, they will need to be repainted  black!!!!!

    And if you are going to try to  sneak them through Concours, grind off 
the "Made in Japan"  mark.
