Autoboot

Hi everyone.. if anyone is interested in this seriously helpful upgrade ..not to say great street theatre.. getting the Febi bilstein struts 23380 is not a problem but obtaining the correct springs is a minefield .. I scoured the internet to source the right strength & dimension compression springs .. nothing on ebay or amazon were satisfactory ( I wasted time & money trying) I managed to source a consignment of proven springs 2 types red for normal & yellow .. more powerful for Votex..

However as soon as they come in they go out ..

If anyone interested please pm me.
Ps I will post the video when I've reduced it

A price would be helpful.
 
Evening,

Check out this post from Bob @Jellybean.

The springs were from eBay here and work perfectly.

Red 45mm springs ID 8mm / OD 16mm work fine with the Febi struts for a non Votex.

I opted for the green springs, same size as above for my Votex Style Spoiler.

Kind regards,

Tom

Did the green springs work OK with Votex wing fitted Tom?

This doesn't really seem like a Market thread - it doesn't qualify as one without a price for a start. It's closer in nature to the Footrest Group Order or a Member Services thread. Moving out of the Market.
 
Ah, I have 50mm springs which I was planning to use without washers. Hopefully that works ok too.

Is there any risk of damage to the boot lid in the long term with this mod? The “nipples” the struts clip to don’t look particularly sturdy!

I’ve added a price .. I’m a little unaccustomed to the workings of the site having been a long time member with 3 A2s .. totally immaculate low mileage across the range .. but not a frequent visitor .. I don’t mind where you put me ..justrying to help .. Baz
