   hi i need to take the wish bone out because i think it's bent as it wont go into the strutt, i know there's one bolt that is near the strutt but how do i take the other end off?
   will i have to remove the anti roll bar to get to the other side as i can't tell if there is a bolt in it?
   also will any wishbone from a saxo fit or will i have to get a mark 2 vtr one?
   thanks

   theres 2 types of wishbone, but you'd be hard to get the wrong one (for lower specced models!)
   
   there are 2 bolts under the carpet that you need to undo. what do you mean it won't go in the strut? how did it get out?!

   i crashed and it came out, i bought a new strutts n it wont go in so im thinking its bent slightly as theres nothing else i can think of why it wont, the other side went in easily but the drivers side it seems to nee the strutt to go back more and it cant its about 2cm out
