Does it require any drilling or does it fix to existing bolt holes... I only ask as it looks interesting to me too BUT I wouldn't be prepared to vandalize my beautiful car ???

No drilling required asa. Very easy to fit using existing body bolts.

Have a look at my post on March 29 2011 in the thread below for some good pictures.

How often does she open the bonnet.... if anything like me only when the window washer bottle is empty... i think there are much better things for Christmas than this... dont know you guys but just saying Daz not a good idea

rustynutz · **Reply #9: November 07, 2011, 12:18:19**

Yeah Daz, maybe a new iron or a frypan would be better....

It was a tongue in cheek comment..

I mostly give her money to spend on her hobbies (mainly her model trains)

your link um,but Rusty's struts on his car helped me decide to buy them.

its hard to decide on buying from a pic,its easier to decide when you see the goods in action.

Ugly Mongrel · **Reply #15: December 02, 2011, 23:04:51**

Glad you brought them 2i30s. I reckon they look great and work very well.
