A set of KYB struts and Tein Springs....

here is the link to the struts http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...888757&rd=1

I only got front cartridges though... when we took off the front struts the previous owner apparantly replaced the stock struts for Monroe ones that the cartridge can't be replaced in. Can you change out the cartridge on the front stock struts?

Also what other options would I have to make this work? I'm super bummed, but this is partially my fault for just assuming the front struts were stock and that the cartridges could be replaced....

? i dun get it. i thought u said the ones you took off the car were sealed.. and you were only able to get replacement cartridges.. so don't u want sealed ones?

or you mean you already bought the cartridges and want something you can put them in? if this is the case you can see if anyone here is selling used un-sealed front struts

I'd return/ resale them and purchase the sealed strut ones. They'll cost more, but it's less of a headache.
