    Be careful. Not saying crazy Ivan has got the engineering 100% right, but getting it wrong could result in the loss of fingers.

    How long did yours take to arrive

    Sorry, I wouldn't know what is normal as I have only bought one set and they took about 16 days. I'm not even sure if we bought off the same seller, so that would have to be considered too. I vaguely recall a 45 day limit on the submission of a claim with either eBay or PayPal, but that might have changed since. In any case, I think your best bet is to contact the seller in the first instance and ask them what they might know.

    It looks like the same set of struts is available on Amazon.
