look on us sites, even with tax could be cheaper. im not sure but if you buy 25mm bar you will need 25mm alk.
the same like whiteline bars are 20, 22, 24mm - alk 20 ,22,4mm

Might be worth contacting TSL Motorsport, they do Perrin stuff, it looks pricey but their kit includes the stoutmounts. I did mine 3years ago and it's good kit

I have the Perrin front and rear ARB's and wouldn't buy Perrin again

Whiteline is much better and more akin to OEM than the poor quality controlled Perrin. As for buying Perrin from TSL, double whammy, never again

Whiteline 24mm Rear bar is much better, I have one on my classic also

Shortly there will be a new source for Perrin in the UK...

And personally I wouldn't touch TSL with a barge pole, have tried them twice and been let down twice.

In fact I rang them two weeks ago to try and order a Perrin catch can/overflow reservoir and I'm still waiting for a return call.

Never had a problem with TSL personally. Although I do seem to be one of the lucky ones!
As for Perrin. I find everything I've had frrom them to be top quality. Certainly better finished than the equivilant Whiteline products. Compare a Perrin stoutmount to a Whiteline version and you'll see what I mean. Also show me a Perrin one where the paint's peeled off inside the first 12 months. (which 90% of Whitelines do) I've even seen Whiteline ones rust right through inside 2 years. That's not going to do much for the way a ARB works

Got Perrin with stoutmounts, and love it, very good quality.

Well worth the buy

Perrin seem to be welded by stevie wonder If you want an arb that slaps your control arm due to poor end welding alignment then crack on

Stout mounts are good fair play and the paint on the ARBs is good. Would still never buy them again though. Whiteline customers service is so good it's worth getting a dodgy bar just to experience proper customer service !

Brought my ARB+ stout mounts from Tracktive Solutions & had no problem with fitment though the actual handling on back roads feels a little less sturdy than the oe items.

Any dealings I had with TSL was 2-3 years ago through their E-bay shop. I see they still as then maintain their e-bay top rated seller status with 100% feedback. I would have contributed to this.
