Hi All,

Well comparo done (and hatch struts done too)

I went to the VW dealer (23/08/16) and for a set of 4 struts (2 for the main tailgate and 2 for the rear glass hatch) VW were only $17 more expensive that the cheapest price I could find on eBay shipped to Victoria for the LOT - that is pretty darn good.

Naturally I bought them, installed them and have a happy wife

Door struts were $155 ex /ea
Glass struts were $15 ex/ea

But in stark comparison - I needed a transfer case stepper motor, common Reg problem, $1550 ex from VW, $487 eBay delivered to my door.

It pays to ask the dealer at least, but on the stepper motor, you can probably guess which way I went
