I've got Red Eibach springs (c0098) on the front and Yellow Eibach spring (d0103) on the rear and all the Bilstein dampers are yellow . which agrees with Power Performance

However things may have changed from original.
If they are original don't you think they'll be knackered by now ?? Seals etc,

Could be, only needed for shot term till I decide on which way to jump. They come from good home very low mileage car and looked after well. Condition is excellent no leaks etc, proof in the pudding n all that, so will see when I fit em.

I thought so too, so lets hope we are both right. I guess if I get it wrong it will look like some chaved up monstrous piece of sh$t

I was rushing once and did it one side at a time so front and rear then jack car other side. Put one side in correct, put both shocks on other side wrong way round. Felt ok laugh
Took another two hours swapping them, there’s a lesson there somewhere.

Curborough probably would have found that little error if you hadnt.
