how much "off" are the lower bolt holes between the echo and yaris?
next question...
why are we sticking to toyota here? anyone thought about maybe a mazda strut?

yea, i had not thought of that. i figured i could just swap the upper mount on and it would not be a big deal. The echo shocks dont have a flatside on the strut though, so perhaps that wont be an issue.
i just found out that echo shocks fit xA and xB, i was not aware of that...
