craggsy 91 Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Have a go at it....its 3 bolts on fronts and 2 on rears..........it really is as simple as undo and remove. But change top mounts and bearings at same time. I took a full day doing it as I took my time. But most of it was setting ride height Link to post Share on other sites

Jezza 0 Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 i dont think you should pay over 200 quid at the very most. surely not. just because they are coilovers shouldnt add to the price. surely whether its just springs and shocks or coilovers, the jobs are very similar. so try somwhere else if i were you. But i may be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites

Pittuf 0 Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 I agree......it really isn't that hard to do......it is as simple as 3 bolts on each front and two bolts on each rear.You don't even need spring clamps as you take the entire assy out in one lump.And yes, I also set them to as low as they go and ended up trapping the jack under the car Link to post Share on other sites
