Hi Guys Need some help and advice, my baby failed her M.O.T yesterday on the o/s rear lower shock rubber bush, so i ned to fit a new shock. Now has anyone done this before? If so how easy was it and also can anyone tell me how you remove the carpet/side linning so that it exsposes the top of the strut mounting? Have had a good look but can't see how you remove it from under the side glass without first removing half of the cars plastic trim. Regards Fitzy

Hi Fitzy ... worth a thought if it's only the rear shock lower bush ..that virtually any shocker bush of the right dimension will fit without stripping the whole shock down ... STN

Hi Fitzy, Sorry to hear about your problems. Hope you can sort it without too much trouble.Hopefully that was the only prob you had with the MOT. Guess the power steering is still OK. All the best. Simmo
