Found this > http://forum.performancevwmag.com/viewtopic.php?t=40697

So tempted to do it myself, but not confident, plus don't want to do it on my own and don't know anyone who knows sh!t about coilovers :D

£150 for JUST fitting coilies, feels like wasted money.

Hi mate dunno where you are in London but if you pop down to Bromley one night after my work I'll happilly help you install the coilovers.

I'm an apprentice mechanic but have now done countless suspensions. There are also two other fully qualified mechanics just down the road who will hapilly check them over after for a drink.  :smiley:

Will have access to air tools and ramp.

Might be dumb question, but are there top mounts for the rear?

I bought a "full car set" top mounts and bearings, but got only 2 top mounts and 2 bearings...Is that how it's supposed to be or it's a mistake?  :rolleyes:

So should I just replace the front ones and leave the rear as they are? Was thinking to get the coilies fitted tomorrow  :undecided:

Do you HAVE to put the car on jack stands before you adjust the coilies?  :rolleyes:
