Use some vaseline on the threads if you have bought cheap coilovers, heard this works!

Oh nice! What brand/model coilovers are they? Let us know how they ride.
I had coils on my old car and the ride was terrible, but I really want to low my 206 and coils are the best option!

ah those pics made me all nostalgic... I remember watching my car's springs being changed and then stepping into a lowered car with a brand new set of 17" 205 rims... felt like a dream... all the way till I stacked it going round a corner about a month later  that'll teach me to get carried away..
Looks sweet though. Hope you have fun taking it for a spin... try to beat rush hour though!

They are AP APF Coilovers, not cheap so im hoping the ride will be good and not too bone-shattering, they will be firm but not uncomfortable apparently so, ill definately post my opinion on them.
oh dear pete hehe, ill try not to stack it anyway! im a pretty safe driver id say hehe. is a straight road home anyway hehe, few roundabouts so should be good

Looking nice DSG - definately let us know how they are in terms of ride quality. I'll keep my eye out for you when I'm out and about.

there's no screws or velcro etc holding it in. its just the shape of it, i just angle it so the top part sticks up into the trim and push the bottom up to the side of the boot. made it with a card template first to make sure its a rele snug fit, that thing isnt going anywhere!
