Replacing front RH strut
Hey guys, 2002 Honda CR-V 5 Door EX (4WD) KA 5MT.
I'm looking for a strut assembly to replace a bent one. I've found two struts on ebay:
Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly Front Right Fits 02 06 Honda CR V | eBay
and
02 06 Honda CRV Front Complete Struts Shocks Coil Springs w Mounts Pair X2 | eBay
The problem is, would these work on mine? My car is a stickshift not an automatic and on hondaparts the frontassembly for a manual is
51601-S9A-A16 and for an automatic is 51602-S9A-A06. The strut itself is similar but i think the spring is different. Should I be worried about that? Do you know where else could I get a cheap set?

likely a slight spring rate difference. the automatic transmission is heavier than the automatic. if youre changing 1, change them both, as youre supposed to. I cant see the difference between automatic and manual being much. If you look in the aftermarket, they likely use "automatic" spring rates for both manual and automatic. I havent looked, but thats my educated guess.
