Oooh, Went over to another forum :embarassed: and found JBS sales posting and realised they must work today. Phoned up and after a little explaination they are ordering two new brackets and fitting them for me. :smiley: Top service again :cool:

Now all I have to do is convince myself that the original bracket was faulty! :undecided:

Are they an aftermarket part Hurdy, I was thinking about it after we spoke earlier and I'm pretty sure you re-use the VW ones with a different bush to take the larger diameter roll-bar. I'm sure you do with the eibach ones anyway :smiley:

....Why? - The product would still be under its own warranty.

My heart sank when I saw the title of the post and your name against it Hurdy... you've had more than your fair share of bad luck with that car. It seems that a lot of Ed30 owners seem to have bad luck... whats with this car?
