Vid don't work for me, how have you got the top mount fitted ? what origional parts have you used ?
Probly be best off taking it off and getting some better pics of the top mount set up, even better if you remove the top mount and show a pic of it in order of how you've got it fitted.

Somethings wrong yeah, the thread is sticking out the mount too far....

I think haynes has a diagram showing what goes where.

They look alrate to me/\
Considering there the same price as a Gmax suspension kit....., but those are height adjustable etc.
I bet there fine for the road.

yer just the set of ebay im not going to spend ?500+ on suspention when its not like i plan to race it or anything, basicaly there was a alloy cone on the coilovers, we took the original suspension off and took everythink of the top except the cone shaped think of the originals and put it on like they were on the standard gear. ill get a pic of it all disassembled tomorrow as its really hard to explain with my sh1te wording. does the vid work for anyone else?? im sure they shouldnt move like that???
