Wishbones

There is an ad for wishbones on e-bay for £49 which claim to be new "Manufacturer Vauxhall/Opel" Sounds fishy to me at that price. :-X

However I note that all the ads say Manufacturer: Opel/Vauxhall, so it clearly does not mean OE unless it specifically says so.

I've had a few sets of cheap ones... Not from them though ::)

First couple were good... Did about 18 months (30k odd) before I changed them and both times it was because I was being fussy (they were just starting to go) and wanted a trip to WIM. Third set weren't so good though >:( >:(

It's pot luck with cheap ones IMO, although I'll probably go that way shortly but fit polys in the front before fitting them

Thats more or less where I was with the Delphi's I've just removed. I replaced the front with polys about 6 months ago, but then the rear bushes went, so I've now fitted Lemforders. I'll refit the front polys if and when the front bushes go again. :y

That's exactly what I would do personally. Regardless of recent posts to the contrary.
