How do i remove the tie bar bushes from a 1999 tie bar bracket. Usually i just cut one half of the bush then smack them out but these seem totally different.

What the centre metal piece before the rubber or the rubber bit itself? Never seen a vauxhall bush like these.

Warren when you say the whole thing do you mean the metal piece the bush seems to sit in as well?
