Bought some new shocks and springs ages ago and decided to have a crack at putting them on today. Was using the vrs.com eibach write up for reference. It says use a Torx 30 to undo this bolt http://www.fabia-vrs.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/eibach06.jpg on mine it's way bigger than that but a t60 is too big and a t55 too small?! Any ideas folks or am I being a bit simple? Also anyone point me towards some shorter drop links? What I'm putting on is a 60mm drop and my front drop links are looking worse for wear.

Cheers!

AFAIK, it's not a Torx head, that's probably why. It's one of those twelve spline jobbys. I think you need an M8 or M10 or possibly as large even as an M12. Torx bits will just either slip around inside or won't fit at all.

Oh my. How did I not see that?! I should be banned from mechanical work Haha thankyou!

no worries
