theyre on my other 19 at the moment, had a look last weekend and the boot on the one i looked at was a bit knackered. was going to swap them this weekend if i could get hole of some new ones.

Dont think theyre adjustable, just yellow

they are only dust covers that go over the strut check to see if they are actually leaking. Also with koni yellow ones are normally rebuildable I think they are sent back to the factory and they replace the seals. yellow ones are adjustable normally only have three settings.
