or not? Apart from it being painted red :) I'm presuming that the Koni stuff is aftermarket btw, please correct me if I'm wrong :)

Hello there.

Koni front struts are OEM parts on all the S cars, and options on others.

The stru is larger in daimeter than the Boge strut ..it swells out above the spindle location.

It is also possible to fit koni inserts into Boge strusts but these anr not iterchangable with the ones from Koni struts.

kind regards
David
