Which rear drop link?...

Post by **NafemanNathan** » Wed Feb 15, 2012 2:17 pm

Are any of the rear drop links on ebay any good? Or have you bought else where for similar or better prices? I need two and do want at least OE quality (For my daily)...

I have the choice of these on ebay...

Cheapest for 2, but no mention of quality. £29.90 for 2...

Only other set of 2. 20k miles/1 yr warranty, but doesn't state OE quality, just "high". £32.00 for 2...

Best looking, but don't know the quality. Are they actually Bilstein? £39.98 for 2...

The most expensive, but the only one to state OE quality. £52.00 for 2...

I decided to go to Honda for mine in the end - wasn't too expensive I don't think, and if they last the same time the first ones did I'll be chuffed

The most expensive and the cheapest that you linked use the same picture in the advert!

I suspect they are all made in the same factory. I have a similar set sat in my garage ready to fit, though I'm not sure they will be up for the job to be honest as they are a different (cheaper) design to OEM.

if its any help, number2 on your list i have on my car now and they are good. i have used number4 on your list for other parts and they are no better all of them are tiawan copys and all those sellers if they have not got on shelf you will get direct from tiawan.
for a daily drive they are fine and my are going strong but if you want to track on them? i wouldn't

Cheers guys. Yeah I realise a lot of them will no doubt end up being the same, or they just use a universal picture. I've taken Ammo's advise and simply went for MotorFactors. They're usually my first choice anyway, but just thought I'd ask. They'll be in tomorrow morning as well, costing £35.83 for the pair, and are OE quality or better from Japan.
