i dont have the part numbers, but my question would be why fit the original shocks? IMO they are rubbish. When i fitted them new, they had been damaged within 10K miles. I replaced them with bilstein shocks and everything has been fine ever since

My shocks have done 200,000kms so I dont know why you only got 10,000 miles out of yours? Only thing I can think of is that here in New Zealand we dont have salt on our roads.
RE: the Bilsteins, I get them but then you have to modify the rears I believe.
the modification for the rears is a 5min job in a machine shop.
salt does not deteriorate shocks,its the bumpy roads.And my shocks were shattered in Greece,not in the UK. 3 out of 4 had oil leaking out of them. Previous owner had boge on for 90K kms and when they were off, they were completelly sat down and had zero rebound.
