Yeah most likely go with KYB since they'll match the rear and only about ~140/pair from RockAuto. Would replace top mounts, also.
And I have no problems at all replacing the front struts. I've removed, disassembled and replaced countless coilover spring/shock/strut assemblies on many different Hondas and Toyotas, including my old 89 Camry back in the day, and my mom's 2007 Camry, both of which had McPherson struts at all 4 corners. I've gotten plenty of use out of my spring compressors that I've had for almost 20 years now. lol struts and springs and spring compressors don't phase me one bit.
