Can you get Donut Bushes from anywhere other than Vauxhall?

I struggled, was recommended GM or Lemforder, but couldnt source the cheaper option, so paid GM prices  :'(

first line. Most of their stuff is crap though. Or you could try euro car parts or any other motor factor.

No not the best at all. They are a funny lot. Do NOT be tempted with their drop links, wishbones or wheel bearings/hubs for the Omega. All made by Cadburys.

I sell quite a bit of first line stuff through work and very rarely have a problem with them

.....drop links. 3 months and rattling like a goodun. Same on BMW E39. Wheels bearing went after a couple of weeks. To be fair, their own staff prevented me from buying their wishbones, saying they are shite, wont last a week! Fairly conclusive i think. Fuel and oil filters are ok i gather  ::) but difficult to mess that up i would think?

Got carlton bushes from them. Have just modified them to fit the omega.  Look fairly solid but only time will tell.
