Caveat Emptor before buying anything from Rock Auto for a German car.  I
bought some parts from them many moons ago for the V8Q and the 200TQA,
90% of the parts were knock off Junk, no where near the "OEM quality"
advertised.  Once burned, twice learned.  
I wouldn't risk buying anything from them that doesn't list an OEM
supplier as the manufacturer of the part.  They rarely beat AZ Autohaus
on prices for parts from OEM's like Bosch, Febi, Graf, Mahle etc. 
It may be worth the risk to some if it's a real bargain, you'll only be
out shipping both ways if you decide what you get would have been
expensive at half the sale price.  

That's my BTDT, YMMV.
