Sachs/Boge Rear Struts

Michael, in a separate thread you mentioned:

<<Oh, and I recently managed to get Sachs to send me 2 new replacement rear hydro-struts...did you know they had a lifetime warranty (vs MBZ 1 year deal)?

If you have a receipt for your shocks (I actually sent a digital picture of my current shocks, in place, reflecting the Sachs logo; I have no receipts 'cuz my house recently had a few pipes burst & I lost many, many records...Sachs was really helpful to me in this regard), I can put you in touch with the guy that might be able to get you replacements. That $1k savings helps offset the $7k+ tab I'm facing!!
>>

Would you mind sharing how this can be done? I'm thinking of replacing struts in all 4 corners plus all bushings and other suspension consumables. Getting some help in defraying some of the expenses may help get this project started sooner rather than later as the front OEM ones aren't cheap either.

You can PM or email me if you prefer. I've tried emailing you previously (I lost my phone and thus your number while I was in NY and thus had no way of contacting you) but it didn't seem to go through.

Thanks!
