Hi all

I have a broken rear spring. H&R coilovers and i think the springs are H&R or Eibach.

Anyone know the best place to source some replacements and how much dosh I am looking at?

No :) I reckon it will be of interest to anyone with H&R.

I need to see if I already have Eibach springs, but what is the general opinion of these?

Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs

or

Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs

If you have coilovers they won't fit will they?

coilovers use a smaller spring platform. As far as I'm aware

And the rear? Anyone know what I should get?

I dont want to get it all appart and find I have the wrong springs.

I think front and rear are different on coilovers to normal. I would say try and get a part number off the current rear springs and try and get a new pair the same.

Was the people David linked above any good?

Mine have 2 springs on the back, a smaller one below. I assume this is to make the system more compliant. All the springs have part numbers on from memory.

I'll take another look this evening then.

Part numbers not possible though as they are rusted like a rusty thing.
