They are not the best but good enough for a DIYer.
They sell them in screwfix as well for not much more than ebay etc, easier to take back if they pack up as I think they have a lifetime warranty
Look nice,
I personally would have gone for some Recaro pole positions (more supportive) but as long as you are happy that's all that matters.
I used these covers on the bolts on my cage and sidemounts...
The feet are not supposed to be like that it is from shipping.
Mine came with one foot bent and when I spoke to Mark about it he said just straighten it with a adjustable spanner but it takes the shape of the arch when bolted down anyway so not much of a issue.
Have a look at my build thread its in there with more pictures.
The drivers side is routed between the panels and comes out by the rear light and the passenger side is just tidied up by putting the cakes inside some conduit tube
Thanks had them from @Carbontec on here as a group buy, I'm not sure he is still a trader but here is his website and I think he sells on eBay

Don't be put off by him being in Poland, he is really helpful
I'm tempted with a odyssey 25 for the track car but Merlin recommended the 30 for my car that has air con (but not used) xenons etc but it is £50 more expensive, I may just get the 25 and risk it, the car is either being driven or when its not its on a maintainer anyway so should be fine, I have...
I have gone inbetween, I left the carpet in the front and everything from the seats back has gone, the door cards have been changed to carbon fibre ones but still fitted speakers as it is driven to the track (not the best sound but better than a constant exhaust noise).
I am in the process of...
What torque setting should the sandwich plate bolt be tightened to for a oil cooler?
I assume you tighten the sandwich plate a bit tighter than the oil filter to stop it undoing the same time as the filter when changing oil?
Here you go mate
After a lot of head scratching for mounting it (did not like most of the ready made mounts / pods) I made a bracket to keep it as compact and tidy as possible, I just need to make a cover to slide over the top to hide the wires, but TBH I could leave it as it does not look...
Thanks Mark
I was speaking with SPA about it and trying various things but it did not get it to work then it just fixed itself, bit of a strange one but all seems good now.
Does sound bad when you think that a truck box will have 16 gears, splitters high and low ratios etc (have not got a clue what that lot looks like inside lol)
When do you think you will get it running?
I have brought a SPA oil temp and pressure gauge but the bottom LED does not seem to be working.
When it is in the test mode with everything flashing the top LED flashes but the bottom one does not, can anyone confirm that it is supposed to flash in test mode?
I cant see a weld.
All you need to do is get the small adapter, undo the flange bolts and the clamp take the decat off fit the adapter in the mid section fit the cat and clamp up, on a ramp it would probably take 10 - 15 mins
I have just fitted my new Spa gauge and I have to set the alarm for the low and high oil temp and pressure.
What are the correct operating temp and pressures and what would you set the lo and high to?
You would think AST would want someone better to sell their product.
I would love a set (maybe a bit out of my price) but the way people are treated just puts me right off even trying to save more money for them.
You ordered these just after Christmas did'nt you?
Over 4 month to get a set of coilovers and they are wrong to the order 😞 it's not very good for the amount they cost.
