Hmmm, as far as I was aware, the Senator and Omega dampers are very different, so I would not go for the first ones.

2nd ones are cheap enough....

Tried www.buypartsby.co.uk ?

Thanks Laidback

Are most Omega Shocks about the same apart from the mega expensive ones.

I just want something around the quality of VX Shocks without having to pay MEGA money

The dampers are pretty uniform across the range (of course estates are different) aside of the MV6 and the elite (self levelling).

As I said, check out buypartsby, they are usually very well priced.
