Well I did wonder that but sites for new ones list LH or RH items!

Just won a full set of barely used top adjustables on egay for £185 delivered. Ok so they're MKIII ones but they'll do the job fine.

Cheers DH for putting my mind at rest earlier.

Hey, I told you to check with someone else.

I wouldn't trust my advice  :tongue:

Ah well if you're wrong DH I'll just have to blame you for all my woes, ha ha.

I was pretty sure they'd fit after reading similar threads on here over the years and I just wanted someone esle to be prety sure as well before I clicked on the bid now button!

front and rear shocks are identical on each axle, nothings sided!

Right just checked my mail and he was away so they should have been sent today. Might see em tomorrow but looks more likely to be later in the week. Gonna throw the Rado into the retest booking and hope that passes after doing some work on it tomorrow!

New rear caliper kindly donated by Mark is now fitted and just needs bleeding up. Shocks didn't turn up so hopefully they'll turn up during the week.

Shocks were apparently posted Monday so should arrive any day, hopefully in time for me to fit them over the weekend and get it retested early next week.
