What did you do to your Polo today?

How much did it set you back? Did you get it locally?? I really want to hear feedback. Especially comfort part.

Got it locally. Cost me 1185 fitted with wheel alignment. Comfort is very good. I have them on full soft at the front and quarter turned up to stiff on the rear. Very close to stock feel

Can the Konis be adjusted while mounted or do they need to be removed?
And what adjustments are possible? (rebound only, high/low compression...)

That's a good price from memory.

They are oncar adjustable. Fronts are easy with twisting at the top of the strut. Rears require the wheel off to make adjustments as I understand. They are twist adjustable. I believe rebound only, but someone else will need to confirm.

Had this combo for a while now and still love it! They are damper adjustment only from memory. Near on stock feel when completely wound off then anywhere up to hard as a rock if that's your thing. As WHTPOLOGTI said 1 quarter turn on the rears for me as well as they have to removed to be adjusted, but 2 seconds to adjust the fronts! Loads of fun.

Forge FMIC shipped today, yay. Should be here by Wednesday next week. Just in time, starting to get warmer!

How many peso's did that set you back landed, if you don't mind me asking?

OK, so the fronts don't need a screw driver to turn an adjusting screw in the top of the strut (that's how my old ones were adjusted).
So for the rears, can you just undo the lower damper mounting bolt and turn the body? That shouldn't take long.
