No, my car wasn't equipped with TEMS at all. It's pretty common for people to ditch the TEMS though. I've driven a few MKIII's with both new and old shocks on the TEMS system and I must say that when new it's a pretty nice feature... but if I lived in an area with better roads I'd still got for a more predictable setup. Some mildly aggressive, progressive rate springs and some good dampers. My setup was Eibach springs with KYB G-2 dampers... The KYB's cost less then the Tokico blue dampers and have better reliability. If you're going to keep the TEMS I think the only damper that's still available that's compatible is the Tokico Illumina II; They're supposed to be fairly reliable and perform well in my opinion.
There are a lot of options out there and a number of things to consider. Do some research and you should be able to decide without a lot of headache.

Thanks CRE! I did a bit of searching last night and prob just gonna go with OEM replacements and new bushings for now. I poked around with it last night a little and the TEMS system seems to be functioning properly.

I think I found the problem with the brake lights. I've done all the basics already fuses, bulbs, and testing the system. I jumped the stoplamp switch and the brake lights came on so Im figuring i fried the switch. Gonna pick one up tomorrow.
