2012 VW GTI Rear Driver & Passenger Side 2 Piece Shock Absorber Set TRQ SBA60437

Cant beat the quality and ride for the price! Ride is as good or better than oem Appear to be built better than stock

The parts arrived in good condition

Shocks worked great!! Satisfied as always.

I am warning potential buyers that you are not looking for an OE quality part and don't expect perfect fit. The lower mount of the shocks are so narrow, that it sits very loose in the bracket. If you force tightening the bolt, the bracket will bend and may even break. I used three washers for each shock to fill the gaps. The lower mounting hole is also too large. The diameter is 13.5 mm and the bolt is only M10 (measured 9.7mm). I had to buy some steel tubes to fill in that gap too. This pair of shocks looks cheap, but you will spend more time and money to correct the fit problem. I regret buying them and will not trust non OEM suspension parts.

The rear are good and the car rides smooth.

Great replacement struts to upgrade to from the OEM ones that were beginning to leak. The construction of these TRQ ones is top-notch, and provides a smooth ride. I would highly recommend these. Installation on a 2011 Audi A3 TDi took about an hour to do both sides. I am very impressed so far.
