    I replaced them with OEM mounts (all of the parts replaced).

    Thank you gentlemen, I was hoping that there was some after market adjustable top strut mount that would give some caster & camber adjustment.

    GUV.

    hi. yesterday i picked up a JOM kit like yours for my son's t5, and due to time, only did the rears. i was wondering, did you use the big rubber top mount disc(150mm ish) between the body and the adjustable spring mount? i didn't, and with the adjustable ring wound out for lowest ride height, you can almost pull the spring out. i realize that won't happen with the wheels on the ground, so did you have to wind out the slack?

    for the fronts, did you use any literature, some forums started to confuse me when they talked about lashing bits of steel and timber with rope. also, some had different methods, so naturally i want the easiest.
    any help would be greatly appreciated
    cheers

    ps. your headlights, are they complete after market items, or are they the originals fitted with led's/
