Koni shocks for the xA are in development!
Here's the essence of the email sent to Koni last night:
Koni does not seem to offer an application my my vehicle. Is this application in development? If so, when will it be available? I also know of someone who has installed 2000 Toyota Echo Koni shocks in his Scion xA. He states that it is a direct fit. Does Koni recommend such a fitment?
Here's the response I got in return today:
This vehicle is currently on the R&D list. We should have part #'s
within the next month or so. Check back then and I should have part #'s
for you.
Thank you,
Stoney Hamilton

I installed Koni Yellows for an Echo application onto my xA. Perfect and direct fit with no modifcation/fabrication at all. They are more expensive than TRDs (~$500 for F/R), but being adjustable and all, I love them. Full stiff all the time!

I used to have them on my crx and I loved them, they were soft when you needed them (1st dates etc....) and break your neck stiff when set to hard I swear by them......but keep in mind that they will only be as soft as your springs will permit
