    Bilstein does require a proof of purchase, and IMHO it would be pretty shitty for you to do what you suggest.


    Karma's a bitch dude, but do what you think is right.

        Have you tried contacting the seller and asking if they have the original receipt?

            ThyssenKrupp Bilstein of America warrants its gas pressure shock absorbers against defects in workmanship and materials for as long as you, the original purchaser, own your car.

              "Defects in workmanship and materials" doesn't sound like they'll give you new ones if they wear out. Can anyone clarify this?

                Bilstein also requires them to be sent back to the place you(the original purchaser) purchased them from. From there the supplier sends them to Bilstein and then they contact you.

                As outlined in their warranty here ...


                JrCamacho - To follow through with what your considering is very near criminal. I'm sure if you contacted Bilstein that the'll revalve them for you (for a price).

                      You didn't buy them new. You don't deserve/Haven't earned the warranty.

                          well is the warranty the same as having them revalved? or is that a service that you can pay for any time, even used?
