Dampers on my coilovers are getting tired. Any ideas where I can get replacements?  I hear various things about Focus Fiesta Golf  stuff fitting, anyone got experience of this?

 

Car is a 1990  rally car

Literally just done this today. Golf mk3 rears go straight on and the focus mk1 fronts go on with slight grinding of the uprights and a bit of playing around with the top mount/spring cup.

You can get FK coilovers cheap on eBay:

Hi! Newbie on here! I've a '99 felicia 1.3 which I use for navigation rallies in Northern Ireland. I'd be keen to upgrade the suspension. I'd like some more info regarding the fitment of the focus - golf set up.

They are cheap for a reason. If you are all about 'stance', and you just want your car to be low, then FK's are fine. If you care about handling and/or ride quality, then my advice would be to spend a bit more.
