Audi A3 shock absorber width

[7v7]

Hi everyone, I'm shopping for front shock absorbers for Audi A3 Sportback 2013. 8V (2.0TDI 110KW, CRBC S-Line).

Since I bought Sachs for rear suspension 2 years ago, I'm gonna go with Sachs for front suspension.

Problem is that Sachs offers two different widths, 50mm and 55mm for front suspension and I can't find nowhere which do I need for my car. Can someone give me some advice how can I be 100% sure which width to buy (without manually measuring current shock absorbers)?

Do you still have the label on the front shocks with the part number on it ? If so, I'm pretty sure that the Sachs website will show you the correct replacement part (or the newer version)

Good idea, will check this if the label is visible without putting the car on jack stand.

For my rears, I just stuck my phone in the wheel arch and took a photo of the label.
