Hi im finally getting round to dropping my car but need a quick bit of help with coilovers as ive never fitted them before.

I've been getting a bit of help with how to fit them and little things to watch out for and do by a few mates but was wondering if anyone has done a step by step guide to fitting them...???

And secondly i have been pointed towards these coilovers as some guy has already fitted them to his mk5 ibiza 5 door and i was wondering if they would be a straight fit onto a 3 door as they are ment for a mk5 golf anyway.... i dont really see a problem with them fitting on an ibiza as i believe the strut diameters are the same for both cars.

If someone with more knowledge could give me a few pointers and light on whether they will fit or not it would be much appreciated :)

Mk5 golf won't fit mk5 Ibiza at all at the rear

I don't think it's the same up front.

Ahhh ok well it was def these that he bought... Its an 09 ibiza so now im totaly confused :confused:

How much are you wanting to lower your car?
If you only wannaa drop it like 25/35mm you would be better getting springs.

And yeh im looking for a bigger drop than just 35mm tbh so have to look into coilovers. and it would be nice to be able to have them sensible height for day to day and then slam it for shows :)
