How do they go in? Press in like the OE ones?

Will be interested to get your opinion once you've tried them.

Paid t have the bushes fitted as you cant get the bush bolt out without lowering the suframe an inch! WTF audi!!! :bash:

Anyhow all done and much tighter on the front. Feels firmer driving as well which is not supprising as the stock ones were worn but also just plain soft! Recomended i'd say.

PS, we also replaced the fuel filter, checked the old one and what came out of it was awfull!
