nice mate, what size wheels/tyres are they?

I need to get mine lowered too, although I don't know how much of a difference eibachs will make, as the st170 is already lowered standard.

Looking forward to seeing yours lowered!

Oh right I didn't realise you could get these! Where did you get them from?

Rich

Edit - just looked on the eibach website, the part number for st170 springs is the same as the ones for the 1.8/2.0, even though they have different 'quick codes'?

I got the stereo adaptor from sextons in southampton. It is an auto leads piece of kit so should be able to find them online.

Will see what the spring are like. If it is not to my taste then coilovers will be the order fo the day.
