Sorry to shout, just wanted to make a point. They are really rubbish and won't last you 6 months, even at that milage . Should find someone nearby, wishbones are practically a service item on these .

Jan 2011 at 16:09 I would not bother with the extra expense of the Lemforders though, if fitted correctly (which often they are not), they cheaper wishbones last just as long. If the rear bushes and ball joints are ok then simply polybush the front boshes

Aye? I guess we are not including items from Delphi, first line and buypartsby in the list of cheapo options Mark?

(for info for those reading, these are known to be of poor quality going by experience and from reports from other members here, avoid, some members have had better results using items from LMF and Vauxhall parts warehouse i believe)

Lemforder have a two year warranty according to allgermanparts web site, make of that what you will.
