Don't know about aftermarket, but you should find a decent OEM already fitted from the factory.  ;) ;) ;) :y :y

an anti roll bar is just that .... a bar. So unless it's snapped, how cn a bar be knackered? Bushes at one/either end maybe or are you just used to driving a FWD Euro-box that can be chucked around corners cos the suspension is that hard  :-/. I know I can nearly catch myself out sometimes, when trying to go as fast in my Omega around corners that I would in my Astra shed.  ;)  :y

RWD cars do not need to be compromised like FWD to get the power down, so you can have good handling with top levels of comfort.

In addition, the Omega uses dual rate springs to initially soft to attain maximum comfort, and stiffer when cornering...
