I notice there are graduation markings on the slots on the units fitted to your car, will these be there on ours as well? Only I can't make any out in the pictures, maybe it's the flash hiding them?

Forgotten about them Sad I just put them on my set with a scriber before fitting to the car.
Basically the way geometry works out on the front struts of a 306: every 10mm at the top is ~1deg of camber. The slots on the mounts have 30mm of movement = 3deg of range.

Also, when fitting:
- 20mm bolts go in central holes
- 30mm bolt goes closer to the bulkhead and its nut slides in the slot
- 25mm bolts go in the other holes

Anyone want to sell me a set they are perhaps hoarding?

I do actually have 3 set available as some people pulled out and I never got around to updating the thread.

I now had them on my car for over 2 years without any issues. The other mounts that I used before (Compbrake, KAD) developed play in the bearings within the first year of road use and it looks like the larger bearings that I've chosen are proving worthwhile (but at higher cost).
