Thank you for your quick answer. i will get back to you, but i have a question: headlight sensor are more than one?? i know i have one on the front wishbone but the other one where is it?

rear nearside (left) suspension arm, same side as the front one...  Sensor on the rear opposite side is for the (if fitted) air suspension.

Hi TB,
Are the front wishbones in reasonable condition? And will they fit pre-facelift MV6?
If it means that you can't move the car without them fitted you can replace them with the ones that I have on at the minute.
Let me know and I can pop over to Brackley to collect them.
Cheers mate.

Hmmm, not sure I would be fitting 2nd hand wishbones to be honest, probably false economy, seeing as you need alignment checks afterwards.

Whilst when I last checked (before trip to Wales in late March) they were fine, its not something I would do.

Just need them to get me by for a bit while I save for the new ones. £225 a piece from vauxhall and work has been slow recently. Car is not usable at the minute and haven't got the money for the new ones so I just need a pair to get me mobile so I can give my missus hers back.

What about the really cheap, nasty ebay ones, just to see you through?

Long term, I think the Lemforder ones are the recommended ones, as GM are too dear.

Risky, don't buy from Vx... Lemforder are fine at about £110 pair delivered IIRCC.

I fitted a pair from ebay for about £53 delivered and they've lasted 2 years, and taken quite a bit of abuse if the truth be known :-X ::) ;D

Hi there TheBoy,

Have you got rear springs for saloon self levelling suspension?  I reckon the slightly old sagged look might be just what I need so my back carries on matching the front:)

Cheers
