Hi,

I would like to add some new lowering springs to my corsa c.

I have spoken to a friend who says they did they by pulling apart the shock absorbers, until the spring popped out. He said it was very scary!!

Is there an easy way to do this.

The springs a compressed into yer shock absorber and as Red said dont touch them unless u have the appropriate tools.
