Strut return pipes
Ok, I don't want to fit any ol' rubbish. Where's the best place to buy some good ones? Preferably someone who delivers quickly as the car is on stands in the garage.

Re: Strut return pipes
As repeated from your Gallery thread.. I highly recommend a pair of these 'Clic' pliers to make life much easier re this job..

Re: Strut return pipes
/\ Yes, you absolutely MUST have a pair of pincer type pliers, or you'll find it impossible to close the snap ring around the strut.
I use something like these
which are cheap, and effective!

Re: Strut return pipes
I must admit, last time I just used a cable tie (but kept the metal bracket). I have pliers like the above but with a slight overlap and I still couldn't get the clip on.

I used to use very wide zip-clips... until I was told to get some pincers!
