They look good, hopefully a bit easier to fit. Fitting uprated anti roll bar with stock clamps is near on impossible! Maybe these are the cure
this was my problem managed to get one old clamp on but the other was a bit brittle and broke. and the pair you get with the kit are just impossible. this seems a good solution i am just hoping they fit.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

would love to know how they fitted them at the factory I bet whoever looked at the rota and saw "anti roll bar fitting" next to their name knew they were in for a nice day at work.

Are they still just as tough to fit to a std anti roll bar or do the problems just come when fitting a larger diameter uprated bar?

Yeah mega tough but the ones you buy now are repros and not genuine vw anymore so may be slightly different in design.
Who knows how they were fitted at the factory. Maybe they had a special machine??

Sorry I know it's an older thread but I've just fitted a pair of these! They were very easy to get on but my question is are they supposed to be done right up tight like that? I have done with mine but the bush seems a bit too squashed?
Thanks!
