    thats a good price.
    fitting is fairly simple. you'll need a spring clamp to take the old ones off, unless your the incredible hulk

    i had this kit, from larkspeed too.

    first delivery consisted of the correct struts, dampers and rear springs. but front springs for the mk2.

    your rear springs in that picture look very long...

    wonder if you have mk2 springs in there....

    the front's are easy to test as you can offer them up to the strut and see if they sit correctly on the bottom of it.

    the rears aren't so easy to test. if they are the correct ones however i'd think about cutting them down.

    Just jacked up the rear and the OE springs uncompressed are about the same as the KONIs? The fact they've sent the wrong springs out before is worrying :s
