wtf... being had?!?... Thats gang rape.
...£800...
If you want the same quality parts
Lemforder make the wishbonds for vx they can be
Had from autovaux for 120 plus delivery a pair. Mention
The forum and i hear they will knock some off.
As said tho pattern parts can be had for 50 a pair. But
Are said not to last as long.
There is a guide on here. Not hard to diy. Just remember
To do the rear mounting point first and torque up
Correctly. 120 nm or something like that. So you need
A big torque wrench i suppose. There is a post
On the board same page as this one that gives the correct
Torque setting.

Never ever ever ever EVER let a dealer work on your
car, unfortunately some things only they can do, but
They are phew
  Honestly.
God alive,...  800 bloody quid.

Welcome to the forum, by the way.

At least I managed to control my rant a bit!!!

Bought a pair for £46 of Ebay and fitted them myself using the guides from this forum.

They might not last as long as OE ones but at that price I don't care.

God help the omega owner who doesnt know about this site! I have found some paten wishbones and drop links for just £75.00 on ebay and a local garage that will charge me £80 to fit them next week.

I guess I owe all of you have helped a large drink! Lets all drink to Vauxhalls county motor works in Chelmsford not getting their £800 of of me to do the work! I am off of the main dealer route for ever after this.

Thanks guys.
