Pick-n-Pull. I don't believe anyone makes aftermarket strut mounts. Depending on your standards and how much $$ you have, if your talking about the rubber pad the spring end rests in it's probably OK to reuse the ones you have unless the spring tip has worn through the rubber and is contacting the metal cup. My opinion only- Member standards vary.

I've replaced 3 pairs of struts and always had new mounts on hand but never used them since there was always lots of rubber left under the spring end. If they're getting thin you're doing the right thing by replacing them. At least call IOS and get 25% off rather than pay full price plus markup at the stealership.
