        from what i remember they go on with the closer coils at the top, but I think they only fit on one way.

        have you got koni shocks in yours?

        what setting are you going for?

          yeah, have koni springs + shocks but wanted a drop of 40mm so thought i'd swap to h&r's whilst im fitting tims top mounts.
          The shocks are about 2 years old and were set at 1.5 turns, i might go anonter 1/4 turn though, because the car pitches a bit under braking now.

          but im wondering if the car will sit level with these front h&r springs on the rear though, due to more weight at the front.

            every lowered coupe ive seen seems to sit very slightly higher at the back. Have you set them 1.5 turns from fully soft front and rear? goto do mine soon too, adjust them that is but cant remember which way is soft or hard.

              It is not true in Sweden either. This seems to be a strictly UK phenomenon.

                Anticlockwise is full soft, I've got 1 turn in on the front and 1 or 1,1/2 on the back and the back is a little hard, I will prolly back it off to 1/2 a turn on the back as recommended by Wab The King I think.

                    Mine is fitted with h/r springs. The rear is slightly lower than the front.

                      Erik, I thought they had stopped making this kit a few years ago.

                        Do you mean the kit with the koni shocks or with the bilstein shocks.

I bought from them and there where no problem shipping from germany to denmark. Price was 22 euro.
