I'm told Hotchkis or bust. And only looking for the front bar. But I'm sure any aftermarket bar is an upgrade over OEM

2 hours later...

Madwi: Da hell?
Me: It fits finally

The pin fit fine, it was in there when you removed it lol. you didnt push the pedal to correct position while trying to push the pin in.

I do do (Lol... I said dodo) all my own fluids... except AT. Much like your MB, I can't read the temp sensor and I'm not guessing.

Get the Eibach, it's a great bar. I believe the Stillen is the softest aftermarket bar and the Hotchkis the stiffest. Eibach slots right inbetween. They sell just the front too. I had this on my Z before I sold it. I left it on the "soft" setting for regular driving but would switch it over to "stiff" every once in awhile for a back road run. really helped the understeer.

Can't go wrong with either, both will be better than stock!

Spoiler arrived. $130 well spent imo. Quality is perfect. I don't give a shart if it's abs plastic. Nobody will ever know looking at it. This car is expensive to mod when it shouldn't be.

I think Mr Madwi needs boost before sway bars lol
