yep they are the ones he wants however i do think cq are pisstakers, point to note, when i ordered a drive flange seal kit they sent a kit without the circlip. when i phoned them about it, they said ' just use the old one'
now back in the day it used to be bad practice to re use a circlip such as the ones fitted to the flange. fair enough they posted the clip but hardly good advice,
also when i rang them about top mounts about 2 yrs ago i got quoted £90  :shocked:  :shocked:  :shocked: when they were £24 from avs for genuine febi/bilsten.
imho all the dealings ive had with them id wish id gone elsewhere, also they are hard to get hold of by phone unless your 'scene'

Years ago I was always happy knowing that they were around if needed them but to date I have never used them as their prices can be a joke... everytime I looked for something (recently front top mounts as an example) genuine ones on egay were under £30 delivered, so much cheaper and got them in 2 days!  The stuff they were selling at Inters last year was waaaaaay over priced as if they had the last remaining parts in the world or something!... Big hit with MK1 owners site and I think you have to be popular there (which I am not) to get anything fast.
