Yeah, Touring... 

I think they're black, instead of yellow.

I would just leave them alone but I always buy W7DTCs because they are the
same plug (7DC rating) with (T)riple electrodes.  Those will eventually
triangularize the center electrode and then I re-gap them to squeeze out a
few more miles.  I should do that on the Audi....

Thanks, I'm just about done with an oil change.  I got tomatoes planted in
exchange.  Didn't put any bone meal in the bottom of the filter.

Last week I did up a pair of sproingy back bunny feet for that 2000 TDI
Golf.  Shocks.  And I hadn't ever done that before so I marveled at the
magnificence of the all-from-the-bottom re-do-ment.  After I dissembled the
parcel shelf lol.

I shopped all around but I settled on a place that rhymes with "beady eye
farts" dot com because they had 4 for $240 and just backs for half that
whereas everyone else wanted $115 a corner.  And those'll fit a 
non-tdi A4 just as well.  Bilsteins.   Da fuck?  Is there a new lower 
grade of Bilsteins that I don't know about?

They also have sets for A3, B3, & B4 at:

They didn't look like counterfeits and they didn't quack like a duck so I
think all will be kosher but I still wonder:
How can "these people" afford this, Potterman?
