I want to have eibach fitted my MY01. Without having to go a great distance to do it, does anybody know who i can take my car to in proximity to Solihull/Brum.

Anybody else got 'em on their MY01? What do you think.

Seems extreme can do it. Just waiting for the quote. It says on their website that they have a number of ex-prodrive mechanics so they should be able to do a good job.

£470 quid to fit. Also mentioned that the ride height will be 30mm lower.

I wonder how much TSL would charge?

Mr M

I have the prodrive springs not the eibachs. I had them fitted by TSL along with a geometry setup. They did a really good job but I cant unfortunately remember the price.

It is still the best mod I have done so far.

I would recommend them, and the roads up there are great to take it for a blast afterwards!!

TSL at Keyworth Notts. very good reputation, see the numerous threads abt the company. They will supply and fit eibachs re-align the geometery (this is a long job) for abt £450. Phone Paul at TSL for details. I`m having them fitted a week on Tues after hearing all the good reports.

Got the Eibach's on my MY01 - worth doing - lowers the car, reduces body roll, improves the handling. Downside is a firmer ride. If you are OK with that, then you shouldn't have any problems. I believe TSL have a demo car with the springs fitted - might be worth a trip over there for a test drive. Cost wise, I was lucky. I bought the springs off Scoobynet - brand new, never used for £70 and had them fitted for £160 by Powerstation (incl geometry setup etc). Result below :
