Hello All,
Please humor my way off topic request, but I have gotten lots of good advice from this board and I figured here is as good a place to start as any. I have a '91 Jetta Gli 2.0 16V with only 104K miles on it. It needs new shocks and struts. I want to get the handling as close to stock original with the least cost. What brand of shock/strut should I look at and what should I expect to pay? Thanks for humoring me and thanks for your help. - Joe |

Bilstein HDs are pretty good. I put them on my '94 Jetta with H&R springs. The setup totally transformed the ride for the better. You can figure on about $500 for Bilsteins.
