They look quite good for the money mate,

I had the Apexi springs on mine but the shocks were soft so swapped for the coilovers a couple of weeks later?

sold the apexi springs to a lad on another club for £20 in the end but were a good spring?

Just wondered if it's worth me fitting the springs myself? i'd need to buy some clamps which are around £20 so would it just be easier for me to pay a garage to do it as it should only take about an hour or so to do thus only costing me an extra £20 and no hassle.

Marsdendean Think Mr Mole has done his himself without any clamps, or maybe worth seeing if a member can lend you some? What clamps are they, are they special ones??

Good luck anyway, did you go for the ones from ebay>?

No mate I did use spring clamps to do them, you cant do it without them.
I was more assisting my mate who is a mechanic, he just told me what he wanted me to do.:p
