FS NOS Koni Adjustable Sport Strut Cartridges W201?

New Old Stock Koni adjustable front struts I bought several years ago for my 190 (W201). Never installed.

I considered using them for a 124 a couple of years ago since I still have them (currently Koni shows the same part number for 201 and 124 in their high-performance adjustable front struts) but I'm really not interested in the project and don't really need high damping rates on my current car.

They are orange/red, have the adjustment on the top (open the hood and turn the knob). Original box and instructions also.

Here's the tickler though: One of them has lost some of its gas pressure, you can push the rod down by hand. No problem with damping, no leak of oil etc., but the original gas pressure has escaped.

Seems that these things are lifetime warrantied, so being that they're not installed you might be able to get it repaired/replaced free, or run them as-is. You decide.

Also, these are inserts, not complete struts. They are designed to be slid in your existing struts after you cut the top off of your existing ones, all covered in the instructions and a drill-bushing is part of the original installation kit also (included).

So what are they worth? Make me an offer, I'd like to believe they're worth a C-note, maybe not, new Koni adjustable Sport struts list for something like $435 IIRC so make an offer.
