    dammit mk3pete... you are not making it any easier to decide between a set of these or a new sound system :j lol

    At <$600 I'm thinkin its a steal. Especially if they are just straight up bolt ons. How much for a set of mounts and where would I get them? I've not checked the old ones yet.

    ohh yeah another down side to this kit is the c spanners they came with are useless they dont fit and slip off so i had to borrow some from work you can get a good adjustable c spanner from cbc bearings or a industrial supply shop 30 bucks i assume, you will need two of them im going to order some decent ones tomoz

    as for the mounts i used the originals cause they were in good condition somone mentioned that earlier in the thread there not too expensive but

    IMG]http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn108/mk3pete/myvr6006.jpg[/IMG]


    the height of the coil wen the car was too low 45mm from the bottom of the lock nut to the bottom of the thread

    after i raised it 20mm i also raised the rears 10mm they were 75mm

    this is wat happens wen you need to jack your car up and the jack wont fit underneath LET THIS BE A LESSON FOR YOU ALL
    note to self go buy a new jack trolly that will lol
