one thing to remember about ebay feedback. it's left after the time of purchase, probably just after fitting, doesn't give you any ratings of reliability or durability. Just to let you know mate.

Back in my days on the spanners I done so many of these for MOT's that I eventually found that they can be done in no more than 15 mins per side. If you have use of a ramp you don't need to take the arm off, remove the two bolts either side of the bush, remove the bolt for the small rear tracking arm and then the arm will pull down with enough clearance to bash the bush out with a hammer just like the chap in the video. Just remember to mark the position of the bush and the rear tracking arm :wink:

Oh yea, also remove the bolt securing the handbrake cable to the arm or it won't pull down enough.
