Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm almost positive that you don't need to change out your valve seals. I changed mine out because the kit I got came with them and seats. I believe the 2001+ cars have the seals and seats as one part unlike the 98-00 which have them as separate parts. I think you should be perfectly fine though if you don’t change out your valve seals.

yeah mine are one piece the car only has 16,000 miles on it so I might try it without replacing anything that I don't have too. Plus Im not paying a shop to do it so if something did start to leak I always could go back and change something if needed.
