Be careful if you buy rebuilt Phaeton struts. I haven't found any that mention rebuilding the dampers (shocks). They check them and repaint them and put new air bags on them. You can buy new air bags and swap them yourself for less money.
Pros: new air bags available
Cons: rebuilt dampers questionable
