Default H-Sport install on my allroad, pics BWW

I am way too tired after nearly a 10 your garage day (not just my car, but many others) to do a write up, but since there are already instructions on H-Sport's web page, I won't even bother, they have a great guide. Special thanks to Worff, Hawk and Greg for their help, made the job much easier. The car now handle amazingly, took away most of the SUV like body roll of the allroad, very responsive, and I set the rear at stiff setting. I am more than pleased, a worthwhile investment. Anyway, here are the pics, if you care...

Default Yes, in fact, we did...

it was tough reaching in there since I did not have ramps, but we got it done.

Default I was told it make no difference if wheels are loaded or not.

I spoke with a tech from H-Sport about the install and he told me it would only be easier to line up the bars if the wheels are loaded. Other that it should make no difference at all.

Default Yes they were, so we dropped the car on the ground...

I wish I had ramps, would have made it much easier...but the nice thing about these cars is you can go to level 4 and still get under there :-)

Default I am counting on those!!!! let me know when you order them and then get here

We will set up an install day...Ya know, we have a huge garage day planned on the 1st of May at my house, maybe you can get them by then, and we can have a ton of help that day, should only take about 2-3 hours at the most.

Let me know if you can get them by then, that would be ideal!!!!
