They are brand new, so if they dent my bonnet because of a design flaw then GAZ will have to pick up the bill as there 'Not fit for purpose'
They are advertised as for the 1.8 16v and thats what i have got.
So surely it is there problem to fix my car if damaged is caused by one of there products fitted correctly.

I have bought and pait for them anyway. Wasnt even going to bother touvhing the setup, may of changed the springs but thats it as im only keeping it a cpl of months. These were such a bargain thou i had to buy them :roll:

Anyway, i have been PM'd by a member here who told me of a fix for this, i will find out more tomorrow

Just gotta order me GSD3's in 15" now and then speak to Andy about SMT :D
