Any experience from ebayer autos haus and their gas struts

Post by celica » Wed Jun 28, 2017 7:45 am

Looking for rear gas struts

£80 for the pair is best price I've seen for e70 x5

Look at this on eBay:

Try these http://www.sgs-engineering.com I've had replacements from them in the past (not on my X but they can cross reference OEM part nos). Their re-gassing service is spot on too. Send your old ones in, they will check them and if they are suitable they will re-gass the and even uprate them. Quick turnaround too and way less than £80

Thanks
I think I've tried to contact them and they don't have for e70 replacement and the cost of postage if they can't do would be a sunk cost , so I'll rather buy new. The German eBay ones do have warranty with it too

Hi

have a look on eBay as BMW direct advertise bits on there and the prices are sometimes cheaper.

Also with contacting Cotswold BMW as they are a member on here and they do discounts for forum members you can either put a post up or send an email to them link below
