I can get all 4 of these from pelican for about $60 odd bucks, but then around $50 bucks postage, USPS charges like a wounded bull !!
So do any Aussie listers know of a supplier a bit closer to us down here?

I recommend that folks buy Porsche orginal struts. I tried aftermarket ones and found that my bonnet (hood) developed a leak past the seal. I cured this by replacing with Porsche originals. On investigation, the aftermarket ones were a few mm longer and also stronger. This resulted in too much upward pressure on the bonnet in the closed position which adversely affected its contact with the trunk seal.
