on topic. one of my front struts on the chamade 16v seems to be a non 16v one as spotted and confirmed by JB and STAN when they were over .

now if the 16v spring wont fit the non valver than the spring off a non valver wont fit a 16v .so does that mean the strut on my chamade is a non valver one but the spring is a 16v one ??

righty so what you are saying is .the 16v strut wont go near the non 16v spring as well as the non 16v strut wont go near a 16 v spring ????

does it make sense???

id like what i payed for them as i have not used them, they dont fit the car so there is no point keeping them.

they cost me £23.50 inc postage, so if anyone else is interested then PM me

cheers Wink
