thx for the help first  it doesn't well i cudnt see it sitting in exactly as the old one did mainly cos the coil is narrower at the top on the new one's so it sits inside the pre cut out if u will coil bit in the rubber.... :S unless i have the springs upside down but that wud make the writing on the upside down and surely thats not right... shall get it all off 2moro and have pics

the spring will narrow at the bottom - theres a little locating slot in the shock cup that the lower end sits into. The rubber bit should fit into the top of the spring, it will more than likely be a tight squeeze. If this isn't the case, either your spring or rubber bit is worng, or you've been supplied with the wrong springs...
