At risk of getting shot for even suggesting it, has anyone tried these:

 

For VW Golf 7 Arteon (3H) TIGUAN II T ROC Seat Leon III SKODA KODIAQ Front Shock Absorber 5Q0412037HM Q0413031AK 3Q0413031BB|Shock Absorber& Struts| - AliExpress

God no... why would you want to buy a brand of shock that doesnt even exist?

Plus the description shows that this 'blanks' the module out preventing your DCC from actually working

Buying a random brand of shocks from Ali Express is certainly a brave choice.

 

Had a colleague who was cheap and ordered some headlight bulbs from the same site. These were the results!

I saw that and contacted the seller asking will I be able to still use the shocks electronically? And they said yes!

 

I've ordered a fair few thing from AliExpress and have been good, you must look at the seller and reviews of the product before buying..

On AliExpress I believe you have to review within the first 30 days. 
chances are these last all of 31 days and you’ll have no way of knowing or telling anyone about it.

Off to bilstein it is then!
