shop around for the kit (Awesome or BalanceMotorsport etc), but if youre a long way away then no probs any competent garage should be able to fit them.
just make sure you also get a geo check done afterwards  :happy2:

Awesome sell for 160 inc VAT do they give forum discount? - I thought I'd get from there if they can do a good price fitting it. The following video shows just how easy it is! - if you have the tools!

Okay I'm getting them fitted next Monday. The guy said he will throw in alignment as well - but he also said it shouldn't need doing, but he will check anyway. - Anyone got any thoughts on this?

Personally I wouldn't have a clue! lol

I was advised that an alignment is needed after fitting...  :confused:

in general if fitted properly then the chances are the geometry wont have changed.
but as with most things is a good idea to have it checked  :happy2: as it removes doubt should you have issues after fitting
it may also help to confirm theyve been fitted properly in the first place too

Yea I have to agree - it would make sense, I'll be there while the work is being done or hovering in the nearby anyway - so I should be able to know whether my alignment is out or not.  :happy2:

*I'm also going to revisit a few days later once i've knocked up 60 miles or so - Whiteline recommend that according to their paperwork (A4 - one sheet!)

Had it fitted today £69.00 Inc VAT

Haven't really had a chance to see how she handles today - although there was a marked difference on the steering wheel weight when parking up slowly (it was heavier) - However the steering felt similar to before the fitting (kinda light at 'normal' speed) and the feeling of under-steer as ever present :( Anyway those are very early days feelings... I'm going to give it a full work out tomorrow and will post 'result' tomorrow!
