JamJay,

Been reading through a few posts that you have put through to AmD, i'm thinking of getting some coilovers fitted (Weitec Hicon) and wondered what you are getting fitted? Are you doing the front Arb as well?

Funily enough i was playing around with vagcom the other day turning on a few bits and noticed that it had auto closure when i was testing the key fob. Cheers for letting me know though.

 

[james.l]

Had a quote from AmD for some Weitec Hicon Coilovers.

£567.35 Fitted - Thoughts anyone?

 

[Deleted member 20376]

I am still considering these but I used a brand on a old car called K-Sport which were very good at a great price. They normally specialise in Jap Cars but they do a kit for the LCR for a tad over £600 supplied which is 36-way damping adjustable also. They were fitted for 2yrs and I never had a problem at all, not rust either, I think they were stainless steel. APEX Performance are the UK Supplier. I am not sure about the front ARB, I think it's quite capable but needs an upper strut brace to compliment it more than anything.

I would fit them myself but the price from AMD seems fair.
