Ive heard they will fit, but there will be some wiggle when you jack the car up (like the spring will be loose) but other than that i think they will work.

there should only be some wiggle if the springs have been cut to lower it more.....if the springs have been cut then dont waste the money....even 45 bucks..

if they drop the car 2/3 then its gonna drop your car a little more then an inch.....

if they are yellow then most likely they are Gold Line springs....but gold lines are a 2 inch drop

They might not drop the 1st gen as much as the 2nd gen though. Remember, 2nd gens are a bit taller, that's why they can put 1st gen springs on there to lower their car.

Go on ebay and find lowering springs for a Dodge Neon... I got some on the car I bought and it makes the ride rough espically when i hit a bump. Also if you do put lowering springs on it u will bottom out. I did and it ripped my front end to peices.

all depends on how low you drop the car.....a 1 inch drop wont bottom out the car or mess anything up.....neither will a 2 inch drop...any more will start messing things up
