Ive just lowered my car on spax VSX springs/shockers and ive read that the writing on the springs should be the corect way up when fited to vehicle.

This was the case on the rears but the fronts appear to have been labeled upside down as there is no way they would fit the other way up. The standard setup was the same (small coil at the bottom).

make sure that the part numbers on the springs are the right ones for your Corsa, orderd a shock and spring kit for my birds tigra a while back , on fitting the springs wouldn`t fit on the shocks properly...... turned out they were BMW springs TBH i always thought the print should be the right way up!
