This is probably on here somewhere, so appologies if it has already been covered.
Where can i buy standard height front springs apart from Toyota originals, they want £ 80 each inc VAT which i consider a lot of money for what they are, any help appreciated, cheers, Jinxy

Re: Standard Springs
When I needed a spring for my old clio I was quoted £95 each from Renault
I ended up getting one from the local motor factors for £30! Not sure how helpful this is, but I imagine if you phone a couple of places you'll be able to get a pattern part for similar money

Re: Standard Springs
A company called Boge do a set for about £80 but I can't remember which company was the supplier.
It was from an article in the Drivers Club magazine last year I think. I'll get my coat!

Re: Standard Springs
Jinxy I replaced all 4 of mine with KYB springs, standard ride height, bought at my local motor factor was about £40 a corner IIRC. I believe these are a straight replacement for the originals. I did the inserts too with KYB GR-2 struts bought from the states on fleabay, the code number stamped on the casing was an exact match to those that came out. Only difference was the originals were painted orange the new ones were silver.

Jinxy ,
Bit of a long shot, but if you're still after a set of springs, I have a standard Toyota set in my garage.
