ST v1 - Blown rear shock

I've been running these for four years now, and I noticed the rear shock is leaking fluid on my passenger rear.

What are my options for replacements? I bought them from Jeff@TopGearSolutions who took good care of me...

If you are the original owner, ST and KW have a lifetime warranty. You will need to send back the rear shocks before they will give you replacements.

ST has 5 year warranty, KW is lifetime.

Whoops. My bad. I actually just purchased 2 new KW rear shocks rather than use the warranty. Didn’t want any down time. $92/each.

I am, and it's less than five years I think, but I can't send them back because I've nowhere to put the car up for a few weeks until they ship back new/repaired ones.
