Looking for German site that sells CQ strut bars...

Heading to Germany for Oktoberfest and figure that I might as well make it into an Audi shopping trip while I'm at it. Since CQ strut bars are so hard to find in the US, maybe they'd be easier to find in Germany with all the S2's and RS2's driving around. Any sites or suggestions on where to pick one up from? TIA! (Does D&W sell them? If so, please post the link...)

D&W is http://www.duw.de/

Don't assume that they will have one in stock unless you pre order. Also expect to pay VAT, which you can get refunded at the airport if you have the correct paperwork.

Good luck

Will a strut bar made for an Audi 80 fit my CQ?

Or are only the 90 and CQ parts interchangeable? Did the S2's or RS2's come with OEM strut bars?

The RS2/B4 90 strut bar should fit in my '91 CQ, right?

If it fits, how much do they usually cost?

They are OEM, so what ever the dealer charges, or a salvage yard....

Talking about the front strut tower brace?

I got the ends, which require the upper strut mounts be partially removed (the plated upper "cup") so that they can be placed and then welded to the car, were around $15 each from the dealer when I bought them.
