About £150 for the pair for self levellers on TC

Remember to replace both though!

Vauxhall dealers.
But you need to have a trade club card, Usual method if you're not in the trade is to join a club such as Autobahnstormers which gives you access to the TC scheme for about £20 if my memory is correct.

They are talking bull, any car manafacture must supply all parts for a car for 8 years after it ceased production.

The part is 64 + Vat. Opel gave me a TC without problems. I'm sure they love any brand loyalty. But when I went to collect them from Vaux in Newry They tried to charge me 132 each I whinged a bit &  they reduced them to 87 I whinged more & paid 64 ex vat for export.

The old shocks were v hard to get off :D
