Hi guys. Got some cheap coil overs on and just noticed one of the shocks are leaking. I can see the shock is just an insert so what ones do I buy on a budget? ? Cheers

probably not gonna have much luck finding inserts, if it was me into the bin and back to static low with -20mm springs and decent shocks. boge, sachs, eibach or bilstien ![:)](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images/ocf_emoticons/smile.png)
probably easier to get a set of complete standard shocks 2nd hand and rebuild them, as when converting to coilovers a fair few of the standard parts are binned
