Is it one like this Mat?


If so it's a piece of piss with the car on all 4 wheels just undo the 2 top shocker bolts slide them out insert strut brace and pop the bolts back in and tighten up job done.

In some cases you may need slightly longer bolts but you're only adding a few mil to the thickness anyway so you'lll probably be ok.

Is a few mm any good though?

I was asking about these OMP braces a while back as I found an offer on front and rear together but going to wait for a rose jointed effort..

I asked about the OMP brace here....
