where from???

ive just fitted a full pollybush kit into a disco 1, 8 bushes took me 2hours just to get the bushes out, had to burn 4 of them out as a 16ton fly press wouldnt budge them a mm..!!!

i hope the vauxhall ones are easyer!!

Sorry I thought you meant how much were the bushes. I drilled the rubber section of the front bushes then hacksawed the metal outer ring so I could remove it and the rears were pressed out and new Vauxhall bushes pressed in on a mates press. The wishbones were new though

replaced my worn climate buttons with some decent = buttons and fitted a new dvd head unit....





sorry for the poor quality pics.
Good fix on the climate :y

Think the stereo looks chavvy, and I reckon too low to be useful in Omega. But each to their own :)
