Stick with the originals. They lasted 12 years so why change. I think the OEM was Bilstein but I am not sure. Someone will be along shortly to confirm or correct.
I stuck with OEM when I changed my last year and wasn't disappointed.

armstrong were the OEM makers.
Avoid the really cheap ones, and if OEM is too expensive then Terrafirma are a happy medium, about £100 for a set of four. You will need a strap wrench to do them up though. Mine came without a captive hex at the bottom like the OEMs so good luck to the next person that has to undo them.

The factory shockers were actually sourced from several different suppliers over the years. My 2000 DSE came fitted with Boges as standard.
I have though replaced the front ones with new Boges and can recommend the ride.
