Car accident, destroyed suspension in Audi TT
So after finals week and pulling all nighters, I was asking for this, I fell asleep behind a wheel and crashed my 2002 Audi TT Quattro 180hp. My front left suspension is gone. My body shop said I need to find parts for a new one. Original would be too much. He gave me a list of what I need and told me to buy it on eBay:
control arms
knuckle/spindle
bearing and hub
axle shaft
strut
I already found some parts but I am afraid to buy them because even though I know how suspension works, I have no clue if there has to be certain requirements met so that it all fits together. Do you have any suggestions? Did the mechanic not forget anything? I found separate parts but in my opinion, it would be better to find somebody selling the whole suspension. I am really thinking about ordering those 5 components separately but first I want to make sure it is a complete list.
I am attaching picture of my baby.
Thanks!

As long as you get all of the correct pieces for your model and year, it will go back together just fine. Sorry for the crash, but luckily you should be able to get it back to perfect soon!
