Think they are easy enough to do yourself if you have the time and patience, and the spring clamps

Dont worry about the warranty, only covered for 1 year anyway, my local garage wanted £60 to fit them, but did them myself when i got told it wouldnt interfere with my warranty.

How much of a gap is left between the tyre and the arch when it's been lowered? It's not much different to standard tho and doesn't it ride better and handle better with these springs?

Is it worth 130 quid and Tez can you post a picture up of your car with it lowered?

This picture was taken the same day as i fitted the springs, they have settled a couple of mm more now. Yes the car looks better lowered and handles better.
