Paid bit more (£27each), but I won't complain- that's still half the price of Sachs and possibly one hundredth of Volvo Thank you for hint. Now.. to start the checklist.. Jobbies: Replace headlight. Oil and filter change Top strut mounts- replace. Check condition of brake lines, especially flexible parts. If still some strength remains- swap wheels front/back. Most of stuff I will need to look for in my "storage", but; Jack- check Ramps- check Stands-check Set of sockets- 3 sets, with ratchets and whatnot. Something to mark alignment strut/hub- I'll figure something out. Thorx bits/keys- check Oil filter socket -check (it's a petrol, different filter than in D5) New filter- check New oil- 10ltrs, check Headlight- check Ratchet straps- currently on site, bring back home (just in case I need to detach ball joints) 18mm spanner- to buy (as above) Centre hub bolts -to buy (not reusing old) 20ltrs of dry red.. naah... that's still bubbling. Won't be ready before Christmas at least..

It was the upper spring seats which were £12.50 each so your deal is almost the same.

Tam-Di-Dam-Di-Da...
PartsInMotion returned money. in first email (i asked for compatibility check BEFORE ordering) they say its "all good" and when i placed the order- not good anymore. they offered some other part, by some "First Line" manufacturer.. No. I ordered Lemforders for £96. from different shop.
