Re: Rear Stabilizers
Gary, the bolts have an offset (eccentric) so you must mark the position of the bolts before you remove them or you will have to have a 4 wheel alignment check done.
These bolts move the back wheels slightly in and out at the top, like altering the camber.

Re: Rear Stabilizers
For god's sake don't buy the ebay ones Gaz, they are shite and you'll be replacing them in a year. Get a pair of oe ones from eurocarparts, they are far sturdier.

Re: Rear Stabilizers
I completely agree with you mate, that's why I got my first lot off the bay, trying to save the pennies.
I was gob smacked when it was failed on them during the mot a year later! You really do get what you pay for with these
