OK, just received the parts from SPFY. I have ordered parts/accessories from them before for my 2017 Outback and 08 OBS (RIP) before, and my experience has been fantastic with them. They even upgraded shipping on this order for me and waived the shipping charges. I highly recommend SPFY for Subaru parts etc. However, here are the pictures of the fresh date coded matching Subaru struts (SHOWA is the manufacturer). You will note that the mounting bracket on one strut is a bit pulled out, but I can straighten that out, no issues. I am wondering whether these are rebuildable - future consideration.
