I am going to get the car back on the lift and try to simulate the noise. If it is the strut bearings, it should be a fairly simple process. I am hoping it isn't the struts themselves. The KYB's are $350+ for all four. I'd also do the strut bearings as well. That is another $100... But, for the $6,000 I paid for the car, I don't mind some maintenance costs. Used Honda's hold their value well and I am trying to keep this car for a while. I just don't want to dump too much money into it.

Strut mounts will make a horrible racket when they wear out. If its handling fine, and feels tight, that's probably it. When I switched to pillow mounts, I couldn't believe the extra noise from leaving them slightly lose (hard to tighten a air strut center bolt, while its on the car).
