I am also looking to replace shocks on my car which currently has Vogtland springs with Kyb's. I'm going to get either Koni or Bilstein, although I am leaning more towards the Bilstein's this time. I bought the car with the Kyb installed but in the past I purchased Koni and would have liked the orange shocks but they don't make it for the w202.

Just so you know, I replaced my shocks with the Bilstein's on all four corners.
edit* - Rockauto is definitely the cheapest, but I just don't know what they get for shipping.

stonemichael,
fill in the details, year, model, etc into your user CP so that members are able to answer your queries.

That being said, also use the search button, you will find it more helpful to read up on what others have done (in past) and find possibly more suspension options more closely related to your model, C250TD rather than waiting for replies (on an older model)
(ie. As an example, suspension upgrades for a C250TD may not be the same as that of a C280, C32, C43, etc.. due to frt rear weight ratios, weight of car, etc)

For bilstein info, also goto their website and search for your specific make, model.
