[Robert Shain: Source for Boge Audi Shocks]

Me too!!!  One of the front shocks on my '87 Coupe GT suffered an untimely
death this morning as evidenced by a wheel well full of oil.  The shocks are
the original ones (7+ years old) all around so the rest of them are probably
due for replacement soon as well.  I'll probably keep the car for only 1 more
year, therefore I'd like to avoid shelling out big $$$'s for a shock/spring 
performance upgrade at all 4 corners.  I was going to replace only the front 
pair, but if I can get a good deal on a complete set I'd consider 4 shocks.  
I guess Boge (turbo?) gas shocks are the consensus of the 'net for combining 
ride, handling and value ... any good sources for these or comparable units?
Also, what should I expect to pay to have 4 shocks installed by a local 
garage?  TIA!
