Grease the up and push fit, then there's a metal sleeve that you can also push fit, but it might be a bit tight (it's supposed to tighten the bush into the seat) so it's probably going to need a few taps from a hammer.

this sounds interesting iv only got a 1.4 but could u link me to buy one. thanks

Don't buy injection moulded poly bushes, buy cast ones.
Moulded ones are not much better than rubber so remember to ask :smiley:

Easy enough to fit!

I used a vice and a g-clamp to get them in. Bit of grease and go straight in.

Drove really nicely after that!

Where all my moneys went.
