I got a quote today from Sears 680$ (for 2 struts + 2 strut mounts+ labor and alignment). If I want to change the mounts only, it would cost 415$.
So far this is the best deal but they won't let me provide the parts...

Thanks,
Leila

Shop around. Try a couple of independent shops. I would also try the local Pep Boys, if you have them in your area. They had the best price for the rear strut assemblies in my area. (Parts Only). They can also install the strut assemblies and do the alignment. This is a straight forward job. It's not that complicated.
