Perhaps you could source the strut tops yourself, and get the strengthening part fabricated professionally, and sell the two together as a kit. I'd imagine this would go down a storm down there!

I'd decided to do both in discussion with my friendly mechanic. I guess part of me is interested in running the old ones to failure to see how long they last in "well looked after" circumstances on a non-Hydractive car, but we both know the old ones will fail on Easter Sunday 500 km from home!!
Thanks to everyone for the various inputs.
