This is pretty spot on for the MKIV mate, and theyre the same as the Leon.

It took me and my mate about 2 hrs in total, including changing the brakes. I did however have my old wishbones hanging around, so they got the powerflex treatment during the week, and a straight swap on the weekend.
If you can get some second hand wishbones it'll save you time and effort as you can poly them up during the week, then replace them at the weekend.
Probably take 1-2hrs to replace the bushes too.

The bushes go and are a bitch to fit unless you've got access to a decent press.
You can pick new wishbones up for an LC for about 30 quid a side with bushes (LCR ones appear to only be available from Seat). Swapping the wishbones over is a lot easier then sweating your bristols off fitting new bushes.
As Stan said once you've got a spare pair you can get them re-bushed and ready to swap over at your leisure.

nice one. so hows it affect the ride/handling.
if powerflex is stiffer, it must make things harsher.

The Audi S3/TT/LCR are forged arms, not pressed steel.
There seems to be some doubt whether all of the TT items are the same and this could be due to the different drivetrain/power unit configurations that were available on the TT (180/210/225BHP FWD & 4WD were available).
I know Audi S3 and LCR are identical forged arms and my educated guess would be the 210 & 225 TT arms are identical also.
My 4mo is on standard suspension, at the moment, and the bushes have improved it no end. Its not too harsh at all, but it does tighten it all up nicely.
However, on lowered/stiffened suspension it may be different.
Your on collies? Border collies?
If you're on Coilovers you won't notice the difference with Nylon bushes, well not much anyway.
