I ordered the Bilsteins through a place called Strano's. I had ordered the triple electrode spark plugs through them before... twice... at only $4.32 apiece (vs. $11.00 at the dealer). I decided to give them a call re: the Bilsteins. Here is the breakdown:

Front struts 2 @ $118.30 apiece = $236.60

Rear shocks 2 @ 97.00 apiece = $ 194.00

Shipping (from PA to MD) = $8.25

Total = $438.85

I guess I got a good deal??

Here is their address and phone #:

Strano's Foreign Car
68 White Street
Brookville, PA 15825
800-777-1831 / 814-849-3417

They are nice people... always courteous... and helpful... and I've never been disappointed. Of course, usual disclaimers etc... I have no financial interest or connection... just a satisfied customer...

Good luck.
