16. Take care to note exactly how the rubber seal, the grommet, and the large metal plate are assembled. Your new shocks should have all these parts. Basically, there's a large rubber seal that sits on top of the shock, and which remains on the underside of the wing. The grommet and metal plate, and new bolt, all sit on top of the wing, accessed from the engine bay.

17. Installation of the new shock is almost a reversal of removal. Slide it into position, push the new bolt through the eyelet (you did of course remember which way the bolt goes through...) put the nut on the other side, but don't tighten yet.

18. You'll almost certainly find that once the fat rubber grommet and metal plate are pushed over the thread in the engine bay, that you can't get the nut on. You need more compression of the suspension, so you can do this by moving the axle stand outwards, be careful if you put it on the brake disc as that hub is free to turn. Better to get a couple of mates to push hard down on the front of the car. Watch it doesn't roll off the stand or jack.

19. Tighten the top nut, if the thread turns you can either use the mole grips to hold it, or buy one of those special tools.

20. Go back down below, and tighten the bottom nut/bolt.

21. Now for the other side.
