Hi,
Lol i must be having a numpty day today as i cant seem to do anything

Now then as title says,How do you fit these?

I have removed the first wing screw just by the airbox (Guessing this is the right one?)
The thing im struggling with is the bottom ball joint on the strut,As it wont clip into place as its not lined up?Does that make sense?

Basically if i clip the bottom one in the top doesnt go in and then vice versa

Please help me as im being a spastic (sp)

Thanks
Craig

when youve got both the bolts screwed in place then clip the strut onto the top ball joint and then you kinda have to persuede the strut round to fit onto the bottom ball joint, as they dont line up perfect.

You have to compress the strut slightly to get them to fit, bit difficult but it goes in alright in the end
