    Default Any way to identify what Bilstein model I have while they're on the car?

    Good morning all!

    Gotta' quick Q: My front struts were replaced by p.o. (for some reason he left the worn-out Boge's in rear) with some model of Bilstein, but I have no idea how to tell which. Am gonna' be replacing my rear shocks soon and don't wanna' buy HD's if my fronts are Sports, or vice-versa.

    Should the P/N be visible anywhere, like maybe down near the strut boot? Is there another way to tell?

    Would **love to** get a complete Sachs kit, but the moths flying out of my wallet are telling me it's not a good time right now.

    Thanks,

    If your car is lowered, it probably has Sports. If it is not lowered, get the HD.
