4th Generation Rear struts for an 88 Celica GT?

I just bought an 88 Celica GT, and it needs rear struts. I took a walk around the junkyard and they don't have any Celicas. They have a few old Camrys, a couple Corollas and a Tercel or two. Would the struts off any of these fit my GT? If not, are there any other cars I could get rear struts off of that would work?

new ones arent that expensive, you can get them online for less than $50 a peice, much better than spending all day in a yard trying to get used ones out, and hoping that they arent pieces of crap.

I dont think the struts from a camry or any other yota are compatible with your GT, so either find a celica or find new ones.

Cheapest new struts I've found so far in a retail store are 84 and tax, with other stores pricing struts and 112 and 144, tax not included. If you could point me in the direction of an online store, in Canada preferably, that sells the rear struts for a better price, I'd really appreciate it.
