Rear shocks for the SSEi
Definitely. To do otherwise would assume that it will never lose any air forever. Even the International Space Station loses a few molecules here and there.
Sound logic!
I wonder if he gets them installed and hooked to his compressor to see if it works, if it does will it notice vehicle is not level via the systems level indicator, and then proceed to fill them up till it is level?
It was so long ago when I replaced mine on my old Park AVE that I can't remember..
I found a video about using the conversion kit though...

Yes, I keep going back and forth between that Monroe 90007C conversion kit and the OEM spec shocks...
Every review of the conversion kit I have read says it makes the ride "better than OEM" and "a huge difference in the ride".
Everyone seems to love them.

Don't feel bad, I am having the same trouble picking mine out, I think I am going with KYB, but not sure if I want to do a quick strut, or reuse my spring and save a couple of dollars..

I decided to go with the Monroe 90007C rear conversion kit and matching Monroe 71685 front struts.
I am told the car will ride "better than when new".
I'll let you know!

According to the manual there are two...?
Rear Underseat Fuse Block:#55 Micro Relay Electronic Level Control Compressor
#64 Maxifuse Electronic Level Control Compressor/Exhaust
Not sure, I know for that video, the Lucern'* is fuse #24 and it is a 10A under the seat fuse.
Worst case scenario look under the rear of the car, near the muffler baffle, you should see the pump, it looks like the pic in this link.. Find the power connector and disconnect it,

I see both listed as well, try to find and disconnect both.

I guess I am confused...
#64 Maxifuse Electronic Level Control Compressor/Exhaust
The fuse controls both the level control compressor and the exhaust system...?
So I can't disable one without disabling something in the exhaust system...?

Compress air in, exhaust compressed air out.
Unrelated to the engine'* exhaust system. I bet they worded it that way so people wouldn't think that some other fuse controls valves and that this one doesn't control only the motor.
