I think there a poor fitment on the rears
The top cup doesn't fit the body well, almost a square peg in a round hole if you know what i mean

i just bought a 2nd hand pair of rears, not even sure which parts to retain from the old shock when fitting, any idea what i should be using and doing to make the best of what sounds like a bad fitment situation?

you need to use a couple of the old top mounts when fitting your new rear coilovers although fitting is piss easy

just the metal cups for either side of the turret bush yeh? thats what i was told when i bought them, and was hoping it was right, and nice to know from another source that its a nice fit, rather than all the horror stories i keep hearing lol

yeah , you defo need to use the small metal cups from each side . thats all you need from the old rears . as for the fronts you dont need the 1st top mount as you get new ones but you will need the cup under that & the small cup that fits inside that , if that makes sense lol . i think people just make a big fuss about coilovers yet i found them very easy to fit & adjust !!!!!
