It took me about 7 hours in total because the struts were seized into their clamp! It's not that technical but I think some special tools are needed to remove the top mounts, or you can take the whole lot off and sort the top mounts out once they're off the car.
Spring compressors are also needed for the rear springs, as I found out.
Still tempted in mine?

Just pay someone to do it and go to work for the day & earn the cash to pay them rather than spending a whole day swearing on your driveway!VDub_9N wrote:hi there

Didn't realise you were in MK, the place myself and Dino (another 9N member) went to www.vagtech.co.uk
Fitting was £50 for mine plus the price of the coilies (also from them) and the service is top notch.
