Stock Coil Springs - C230 coupe - where can i buy them?

I've got a broken front coil and either cut or broken rear coil springs. I wish to replace all 4 coil springs but I'm not interested in lowering, however I can't find these coils in any of the oem parts sites (many have lowering kits) Obviously I don't want to pay Dealer prices

Does anyone know of a website that has these springs and a good price, also does anyone have the part numbers?

Thanks

I have two different sets of Coupe Springs. Stock suspension and sport.

Stock springs $90 plus shipping
Sport springs $125 plus shipping.

Shipping would be actually costs and no more.

I'd be willing to do a super cheap deal for struts and shocks included.

$200 for stock springs and coils
$225 for sport with springs and coils.

I was swapping the upper control arm and found the driver side front spring had broken about 3/4 a coil from the bottom.

As for the rear - it sits low - I haven't looked too hard but it would surprise me if the previous owner had cut them

I thought the coupe only came with sport suspension? Now I'm confused. How do i tell if it's sport or standard suspension?

Seacoupe, I just noticed you're in Manhattan Beach, can I drive by and see the sport springs you're selling? I sent you an email.

No problem.

Best bet is to catch me during the work week. My warehouse is in Gardena near 110 and 91. PM me your phone number and I'll call.
