If you select the side from citroendirectparts, it will prompt that they are on back-order

Chevronics is the last place that has them in stock I believe, and they are also running low They posted to facebook about low quantity of the struts on the market and them being on back-order from Citroen, after this post someone bought all the stock from Polish market and possibly from all over European Union.

I think that someone will start to sell them with a huge markup. There is also possibility that Citroen will manufacture new ones what I sadly doubt. And there will be people that will rebuild the old ones soon enough.

I'm sure some of the old stock will pop up for sale from time-to-time. If you manage to source new ones, don't throw away your old ones please. Someone will be happy to refurbish them in the future

All that I know that there are some people in Poland that are looking in to it(who are also refurbishing struts for other old Citroen models), there were no need for rebuilding old ones until now since new stock was available.

Edit// there is 5271L8 for sale on ebay currently - Click Here -
