Default 2008 Astra Xe front coil spring

I have a 2008 Astra XE, with AC, Auto transmission. I have one front and one rear spring that is broken, rear springs appear to still be available but I've searched high and low for the front springs and can only seem to find manual transmission option. I've called several scrap yards near me in Maine and NH and they all said the same thing, haven't seen that car for a long time... Any ideas or leads would be appreciated as this car still has some life left to her!

OEM part number I was given by GM parts counter for front coil is 93179666

Ebay uk lists that spring as available. Please check them out for Astra parts.

Thank you for the quick reply. I've found some springs but if course if I enter in my Astra details it warms me that these don't fit. How can I confirm which Astra parts are compatible with vauxhall?

The first listing I saw said all Astras, 2002- 2009? Opels and Vauxhalls are the same cars. Astras here are made by GM Europe.
The Saturn L series was assembled in the States but it is an Opel/Vauxhall Vectra B. Opels were built in Germany and left hand drive, Vauxhalls were assembled in Great Britain and were right hand drive.
I like EBayuk because I don’t speak German.
