They are Boge gas shocks. The true replacement part is only available through
Audi. I replaced them with the nearest Boge equivalent (according to Boge).
It was a Turbo Gas shock. The new ones were a bit stiffer but this may be
because the old ones were worn out. At first I thought it was a little too
stiff, but I love them now and the lateral Gs have probably gone up a few
tenths of a G.

Original - Boge (1-0201-32-384-A) (Cannot be found in the US custom Audi part)
I replaced mine with Turboshock 32-402F.
