Can anybody recommend a cheap/reliable retailer for Bilstein shocks (the OEM type)? Best I can find is 90 quid each - anybody know if I can do better than this or is that a good deal?

thanks

Go direct to Bilstien UK, they can be quite helpful, but then they can be quite snotty, depends what you want
PM sent with info
Cheers

Thanks for the replies guys.

What problems did you encounter with Bilstein's Rohan. I have a contact who can get me Bilsteins at a heavy discount but want to make sure that they are the right one's.

He reckons that the fronts are part number: P360024 and the rears: B460813. Can anyone confirm these part numbers. Thanks in advance, Numair.

That fron part number looks correct from memory. The problem I had was that I needed a slightly shorter length shock. The car was a 1974 cs and apparently some had a slightly shorter strut. Generally the number you quote is the one though for the fronts but you will find the number for the backs in the archives.
