Very easy took me about 20 mins as it easy to get to on wagons

Looks good. What does it do exactly and how much are they?

It stiffens up the bodyshell so the suspension can work better as the wagons don't have a rear bulkhead like saloons

Got it from HERE but you have to add customs on top of that price

do you notice the difference ian when i fitted mine i did notice much stiffer and better cornering 3 hours to fit on a saloon though

Haven't had chance to try it yet so can't say, oh the advantage of having a wagon (20 mins to fit)

Saw your pics on the wagoneers thread, looks awsome. Great spraying too, nice and stealthy.

Money will do

Just thought i'd do a little update on this now i've had it fitted for a few weeks, i must say that it does seem to stiffen up the bodyshell which has got to be good, theres a roundabout near me that has a rippled surface and when i used to go round it the car just didn't feel right and felt like the whole car was shaking but now it feels more solid and doesn't upset the car so i can now go round it quicker so if anyone is thinking of fitting a rear strut brace i'd say definitely do it especially if you have a wagon

Hate those kind of roads. Don't know what it's like for others, but always feels like my teeth are going to vibrate out. I know what you mean though, on those type of roads, car does feel very uneasy. I'm thinking thats mostly due to the crappy tyre/wheels.
