I just emailed KYB to see if they have any other info. What has me nervous here isn't the price, but whether I can get them or not. :-/

Yes they are for AVS. I have a 13 Gs350 Lux with AVS.

This is great. Thank you!

I saw you have a RWD GS. The active fronts, I found, but also saw that someone said they think the rear assemblies with AVS are the same for AWD? There has to be an option other than going to the dealer for these. From some of the things I've read, they're stupid expensive.

The model year and the driveline type eg 200t/300/350 RWD vs 450h vs AWD - have different shock absorber part numbers.
The 200t/300/350 use the same part numbers.
The Luxury uses the same shock absorbers as the F Sport.
RWD vs AWD use different part numbers.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
