[s-cars] Eibach spacer answer

[jimk at spotgraphicsinc.com]

I looked everywhere and can't find the ones I have.  I can't believe I got rid of
them as I was able to find several blown/cut hoses, a bad MAF, a bad coil, a bad
PSO, and all kinds of other defective/broken Audi parts.  All of a sudden I'm
totaling up the repair costs to date and no, bad idea, don't ever total anything
up.... Anyway, I will keep looking, they'll turn up eventually.
