Just found out that I need 2 new rear Bilstein shock absorbers.
I have had one quote which I thought was high, so keeping that cost to myself can I ask if anyone can recommend a supplier I can contact for a quote. I have a 2009 Mk3 2.0l Sport.
Thanks in advance
MX5Parts? - they list two types of rear for the MK3.5 depending on whether convertible or retractable hardtop, both over £200 each.
Ebay list but you would need to know that they are the correct type. Listed at £127 each delivered - Bilstein B6, part number 24-131759
Item number 122247242644
If you could confirm the Bilstein part number which is possibly still visible may be able to be more helpful.
Sachs shocks are £97 each on carparts4less or eurocarparts.
Whilst not Bilsteins, they are listed for the sport so must be adequate.
If your’e bothered about the colour, paint them before you install them.
Thanks guys for all the advice
. I too have bitten the bullet and gone for B6 Bilsteins from Demon Tweeks.![]()
