Monroes are one of the best third party dampers, really not worth that much though nor comparable to the adjustables on offer! They are quite often 10-15 quid on UK bay

I used to run them on Fake for rallying, they are good. Thing I've found with all suspension is with the stuff I do it doesn't last that long anyway :(
