To be truthful mate a they where a pain in the rear.
The rear ones where done in about a hour that's the old ones of and the new ones on. The front .
where a right pain and i had to make a tool for the top strut bolts and it did not half take a lot of smacking with a 14lb lump hammer and a piece of wood to get the old front ones out. but after that it was plain sailing. as the new one slotted in with no probs.

I hate clamp fit !!!! I use a copper and hide hammer (hide side) there legendary!!!
Did u need to take off you ARB's?? Or get a mate to push the hub down??
When i did my A3 i had my mate litraly standing on my disk to get it low enough!!
oww... with coilover i spose u can set it to really low and make them small??
Maybe i should think befor i start typing and then you wont get my thought patter???

Christ what a job adjusted the ride height today took me longer then to put the bloody thing on.
Had to soak them up in wd40 winded them all down marked them up and winded them all up 10 turns seams to sit a bit higher now but no rubbing yet.
If it does start again i am just going to wind the front up a few more turns.

the ride is excellent and improves the corning and handling no end
not to stiff and it holds the road a lot better would give it 8/10
Cheers for that. the back got a nice drop 2it.
How much more can you drop it by?
from where did you buy it from?
normaly, when you go around a round about with abit of speed, the back swings out alot espically when the tc is off. out of 10, would this grip well?
Sorry for essay, but i need to get some but want to knwo how others handling are like. costing alot of cash and dont want to be disppointed.

They where 40mm to 120mm drop mate its about half way down. but u can not lower to much without getting a new (ARB) otherwise u get a knocking. i brought the coilovers from my local motor factors he got them for me as a favour .I don't use the tc its always of and i can really though it round the corners i never noticed to much slideing . i would give them a 8 for grip but this also comes down to the tyres and upper and lower strut braces but with my set up i would say i have had about a 40% increase in corning and handling.
And it makes it sit nice as well

No probs mate.
If you lived a bit closer i would have let u have a ride in to see how you like it.
My mate as got a golf mk4 turbo and he say's it handles very well and the ride anit as stiff as he thought.
