Foolish Fellow, I personally would go to the dealers or eurocarparts, I bought a pair of droplinks for my 540 from ebay and they were crap to say the least. One of them started knocking again within 1 month. If you want something to last then it is worth paying a few extra quid.

Definitely pays bit more from the likes of GSF or ECP as they will offer OE quality with out the premium.

They cost 30 from Jkc bm and I needed the auto trans oil too. So I ended up getting all from them, charged me 119 in all that's 90 for 5 ltrs ATF .
