2004 STI rear drop links
Hi all, first post here!
Just recently got myself a 2004 blobeye STI, completly standard, and the modding bug has already grabbed me!
just recently bought a set of BC coilovers and whiteline adjustable rear ARB
Ive come to fitting the ARB and have hit my first 'issue'
my car has the rose joint metal drop links on the rear and surprise surprise the bolts wont come off so im looking into new drop links so I can cut the old ones off
However which droplinks will fit? will I need the same as the originals or will these also be ok?

thanks

You do know that there's a flat for putting an OE spanner on the dust cover side??
IMHO the best drop links are the OEM ones as they come with grease retaining covers. Most "Aftermarket" ones require regular cleaning/greasing and become very noisy after a while.
The Whiteline droplinks picture you posted are for a "classic" not newage
