(esp, when driving thru bumps, rough surfaces) thanks SSML Hey SSML: Sorry those were not stoppers, they are just something to hold on to the new springs, anyway there are cracking noise when to park and pull your handbrake after a while you park it, like 20-30 seconds, anyway the car have this go back to dealer light which is annoying as, also the headlight leveling is fu*ked, it dosent settle...but for (SSML) you got halogen headlight? it dosent matter to you then, but for OZis200 you should just get eibach and remember to write a review and pics like me, lol....later....

SSML Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Thanks for ur input Frylai: Did u mean those light brown rubbers are not installed into the car? So they were for u to hold the new springs? I dont understand!? Some Is300 owners have the same problems with the warning light, It must be the automatic self leveling system for HID. Well,I dont have HID , so I will be ok to lower the car. pictures please. thanks SSML Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
