My FK coilovers arrived yesterday for my '99 corsa b, does anyone know how much a garage should charge to fit them? I've got no idea and don't want to get ripped off! I've been stranded with bits missing off my car before because I've started something I can't finish so I'm too scared to do it myself lol

surely you're gonna have to make sure that garage can set camber angles aswel mate? because fk's come with an elongated bolt hole which allows you to adjust the camber angle. trust me, its a pain in the arse

Yeah, was worried about that too! Do most garages do that?

you will need tracking and camber adjustment once fitted.... alot of places call it 4-wheel alignment
probably looking at easily £200+ fitted and set up at any half decent garage, probably more

Just rears done at the mo, couldn't get top mounts off originals  so gonna get some new ones from vauxhall. Even with just rears on it feels better, but they will probably be quite bouncy, I'll let you know once the fronts are fitted
