Look in the classifieds as there are a few cars being broken... S3 racks are differnt to A3 racks though so make sure you get the right one for whatever car you have...

I bought one from ebay for £125. seller was a chap called deutsche car parts. Don't forget that after you install a new rack, it's likely that you will need to recalibrate your steering angle speed sensor. I've posted how to do this in the VCDS section of the forum.
