The other option is to make new holes in the seat plates to fit where the original holes are mate

So my updates more of a downfate..my coilovers are having to be taken off due to them being fitted incorrectly, the reason they were fitting so rubbish is because the beatings weren't fitted in between the top cup and top mount so the top cups just been grinding away over time.. this being the outcome..ImageImageImage seriously lucky that I had got Coupe77 to have a fiddle with them for me otherwise I could've been involved in a very serious crash, being told they could've locked up, I also went mad at the person who fitted them along with my girlfriend going ape sh1t at the fact my family and brother have driven the car in this state which is absolutely ridiculous, also said to one of his friends so if anyone died from his qualified skills you'd still stick by him and they turned round and said yeah I would actually, which I found absolutely sickening!

upside is I've found one top cup from someone nearby just need one more now, anyone know where I can get them from?

Was just going to say that ;)

Thats disgusting that they think its acceptable to fit them like that! At least you found out before something seriously bad happened! Has he fitted stuff like that for a lot of people around then?
