I need a lead on some front gas shocks for my 1984 360 - anyone got any sources? Or recommendations re brands. Mine rebound once or twice when tested

I've got Quinton Hazell gas shocks at the back in my GLi. Made a huge difference compared to the tired old ones ... As far as I can tell, they're fine!

Adam had QH ones on his car. They were good to start with but have not lasted so well. Normaly QH parts are very good.

Each - I only paid 70 odd quid for a pair of red konis for the rear so am a bit loath to part with that much cash for the fronts...

German company, might be worth contacting to see if they can get hold of any more. Be warned that they only accept bank transfers in payment, and since we're outside of the eurozone here in the UK that can cost anything between 10 and 30 quid depending on your bank.
