front coil springs
« on: 11 February 2011, 15:05:16 »

just taken the mig in for its MOT and needs track rod and a new front coil spring. Price for the coil spring Ive been quoted at being around £70 which seems dear to me. Looked on ebay and there are some at £43 and then Kilen at £54. Anyone any recommendations as a he is happy to fit If I can get cheaper ones. thanks :y

Got a pair of Kilens on both fronts - no issues to report with 'em. :y
They're one of the few aftermarket suppliers who do 'model-specific' coils for the Omega. ;)
