Not sure which ones are available on the bay, but the best (BMW) ones to fit are from the E46 M3. These are direct swap for the standard E30 parts, but a bit more robust.

BMW part number 33 52 6 754 096 - approx Ԛ£12 each (inc VAT) at the dealer.

Cheers,

Ian.

They are alot stronger and will last longer than 5 mins if u have an E30 which runs m-tech height or lower!

If your car is a standard E30 on stilts then the normal ones are fine.
