Default Rear Strut Problem

My 1995 Audi 90 quattro has been making squeaking noises and I believe it is the right rear strut, I ordered a new pair of struts but I'm wondering if it is a DIY. Has anyone gotten them replaced? and hard/how much, was it.

I was told it was the strut, but it squeaks when it goes up or down even at the slightest amount, and do you know where to get the bushings?

Default To DIY or not DIY, is that the question?

Definately maybe.

Whether t'is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous dealer prices or take aim at a sea of toubles, and by opposing, make them worse?

CR is probably on the right track. Have a look in that fender for a "strut". What exactly did you order? Do get thee a Bentley.
