Been waiting for these to come back in stock for a while now. Want to replace all four corners on my car to freshen everything up and this is the missing link lol

Sticking with OEM. Hear Arnotts can be hit or miss by a tech I respect and that has experience with them.

Mercedes made a run of ABC shocks maybe 10 months ago... they seem to do this every now and then. Sometimes they're remans, sometimes new. Smart to avoid the Arnotts, replaced one of those on a friend's cl55 and it let loose after about a week.... Enjoy the waiting game!

This is what the shop I had my car at said also. I have no issue waiting. Will collect the other 4 in the meantime as coupon codes become available. Should be fun!
