The mounts are the same, it's the strut that is different. Is my guess the mounts look the same on both.

i thought the same thing... but i believe the strut rod it self is thicker in diameter. also when looking to buy aftermarket strut mounts some will say w/o electronic or w/o variable adjustable suspension.

This is from a Windom. Looks about the same.

yeah thats it, but i need someone to clarify that they are the same as the regular strut mounts that has done this before. the mounts do look the same but its throwing me off that they are saying with out variable adjustable suspension. id hate to buy the strut mounts, take the struts out and they not fit.

The mount is identical between regular and AVS - confirmed by looking on Sewell Lexus Parts Catalog. They only have one part number for it.

Here is somebody who went from regular struts to AVS.
