Pics of the brace fitted to a K Series.

Pretty tight at the battery cover. The seller says you might need to get rid of the battery cover but I modded the battery cover by cutting off the right and left side clips on the cover and the lugs on the actual battery box. The intention was to slide the cover on and off by pulling towards me and pushing on. It sort of works but It now slides on from left to right with a bit of giggling but im able to have a battery cover still which is good.

No, they are designed for the front only.

Default Strut Braces

Thx to all those who have bought one of these. Apologies for not sending the tracking numbers out whe they were dispatched. Only a few left now. These are only intended to fit on the front.
Pictures of them fitted much appreciated.

Regards,
JB

Yes I painted it myself. I had a small can of Trophy Yellow. A quick rub down/key, two undercoats of primer then paint.

The brace is fouling on the bonnet on the driver side. It marks the sound proofing so I can see where its hitting the bonnet so the bonnet is sitting a bit high on that side. I'll have a proper look at it again at the weekend to see if I can sort it.

All sorted. It was not the brace. The rubber stoppers needed adjusted on that side.
