Cofap are available at MOST VW Aftermarket shops like Mick Motors - SKH Motors etc.... depending on what state You are in.....
Pedders also have shocks for Beetles etc...
I have some Pedders gas shocks on My Beetle....
Monroe are Australian Made shocks...

Oil shocks are best for the front......
Gas pressurised at the rear... because of all the weight...
best of Luck

Sorry I don't have any part numbers...
Pedders are very professional, so they would have a list of cars that they can fit shocks to.....

Their shocks would have to be good as their business depends on them.....
plus they have branches in Most capital cities...

Pedders are just Monroe shocks with a higher price tag.
