Decent price as the arms themselves can cost from cheepy junk at 50 quids to decent stuff at over 100 .
Mind you price does not reflect the quality nowadays so get the arms with the longest warranties . Max I've found is 3 years and only 60 quids . But then is any warranty worth the paper its written on nowadays ? As none of then will last as long as the originals. My front OS corner is on its last legs on its 3rd Arm .(replaced by useless garage in 2014 @120k+ ) whereas the NS is original @ 156,000 miles

I would say that is rather low (for one arm). I would check the arms that they intend to fit and make sure that a well known make is fitted even though the cost will be higher. These days, I would tend to go for TRW, Delphi, Firstline etc. A TRW or Delphi arm wll cost around £100 to purchase. Last edited by MSS; 6th August 2019 at 12:44.. |
