    why you want buy it from Perth? I have been looking around, best and easy is to buy it from trader on this forum, post it to your door. it is very easy to bolt on, just need to make more space near the air con line on the driver side.

    Yep I just bought one and fitted it myself. I spoke to an engineer and I then angle ground a small section of the drivers side bracket so I got better clearance on the Air Con Line. I then just touch up sprayed the bracket again. Worked perfect

    Do you notice any difference on stock suspension Mike?I did but i have aftermarket suspension.If you're careful you can bend the AC line a bit to get the clearance you need.

    Hi Tony,
    It's hard to describe but there is a "taughtness" in the front end that wasn't there before.

    I was going to bend the Air Con Line but I decided to have a chat to a local Mechanic who is a Honda expert. He had a look at how much "meat" there was in the bracket and I had drawn on it how much would be needed to be angle ground away. He was confident that the bracket wouldn't be compromised by the amount I would take out.

    I did it and it worked well. I then slid a small piece of rubber around the Air Con Line just to be sure.

    Cheers
