You're right Jimbob. Page 18 of this thread shows madflags1 from Germany (with UK delivery address) ordering and paying for bushes.  :y

I suppose I should think of fitting mine sooner rather than later ....... I've very recently had thoughts of leaving Omegaship!  ???

Is it the thought of fitting the bushes?  ;D

Having read that the price of better roadholding is a harsher ride, I am considering not fitting mine. :y

While there's no oppertunity to try before buying, there's non problem re fitting the old ones or my original febi ones if your not happy.

While there is slight increase in harshness, the benefits out weigh that by some way IMO. There's no more harshness than with poly fronts for instance. ...and in the course of re fitting the rubber pads, as a half way house, then refitting the poly pads, I am personally completely unaware of any down side now.

IMO, fit them. Get used to them and the tighter rear end, then decide. It's really no biggy to re do the job. :y
