michael5556 247 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I have just purchased a set of wietec hicon tx coilovers http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/coilover-suspension-kits/car/volkswagen/golf-mk3-vr6/weitec-hicon-tx-coilover-kit-lowers-40-70mm-2These will be going on the mk2 vrt and I was wondering what people use to protect their coilovers and look after them during these winter months. I had a quick search on google but most of it was across the pond.... Any tips would be appreciated.Thanks Link to post Share on other sites

Ben Seabrook 4 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 or just get coilover covers and avoid all the hassle and mess ! Link to post Share on other sites
michael5556 247 Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 That is a good idea. Shame they are around £60 a set Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 that's a lot cheaper than new coilies ! and I paid £30 for some new coilover adjusting rings after mine seized solid and had to be cut off, will be getting covers for them in the future makes life easier and I am all for that !
