Bilstein Shocks to replace Airmatic?? Anybody ever used them??
I see on ebay they have Bilstein 24-120234 shock absorber for CLS n E class. On Bilstein's site, they claim this shock can be used on 2003-2009 cls and e class.

Has anyone ever installed these shocks? They appear to be nonairmatic but dont include a spring or have a mount for a spring. I contacted the ebay seller and others but nobody knows for sure if this will work as a replacement for the airmatic oem shocks. I'm guessing they have to be since Bilstein lists that they work for those years but I've searched the internet and not found any information of anybody installing these shocks.
Thanks
