   probably in the premium section, they're not hard to fit just push the old ones out and push the new 1s in simples

   If people need a guide to fitting bushes they should leave the job well alone.

   the only thing is he went to the effort of taking off the strut.
   
   theres no need. just undo the balljoint bolt and pull down

    Yes funny, I know they're from vibra technics, but did you get them direct or somewhere else? As sometimes you can get stuff cheaper elsewhere. Or was that too obvious?
