I've seen a few people using these, Sean B for example and was just wondering what these are like and if they are worth buying? And how do you get the adjustment when using them?
Cheers.

Well worth the money if you get them set up properly. It was like night and day when I had them fitted to the wifes old CTR.

It knocks the tracking out as well once they're done (or so I understand) so that may have been your issue.
I've got some here but just haven't had the time to try them and check they don't make the wheels scrub the arches.

I had mine done at the tyre center they use the laser aligners and so the computer shows on the screen how many degrees the camber is at. If that makes sense?

^Depends on how much labour they charge.
It is correct about the tracking, Will need doing again!
I have them fitted on my car, One of the best mods, Love them.

I installed the bolts myself in the mornin set it up so it was driveable and went straight to the tracking place in the afternoon so it just costs. Whatever your local tyre place charge for a full front end alignment

Normally that job is £20-40 for 4 wheel alingment, and geomerty setup.
All together a good service, i found camber bolts need alot of fucking about if your going by eye, but once setup okay, doe's make an improvment, so much so im getting adjustable top mounts.
