thanks for the reply have you tried these yourself if so how many miles did yours last  i am asking because some of these non genuine parts don,t last and i would rather pay a bit more and get the best guality ones , the genuine vx ones only lasted 42000 miles on mine so you can,t expect to much for this price

I generaly use the ones from VSC as they have Boge rubbers fitted.

They work out cheaper than buying the replacement bushes from Vx.

If its wearing the inside edge then that is the camber setting in-correct.

Wishbone bushes if worn wont help.
