Title: Kappa Coupe - Rear Shocks
Post by: LC2 on 07 April, 2013, 09:45:28 AM

At the risk of causing widespread hilarity I have an embarrassing question:  Where do I locate the top mounts for the rear shocks?
Yes, yes, other end of the strut etc. !!!

Looked in the boot and removed all the covers and sound deadening and can only see the tunnel but no access.  I have looked inside the cabin and removing the speaker only exposes the seat belt anchor...Do I have to remove the rear seat?  If so what's the procedure?

Thanks....

I'd forgotten this post.

Access is via the cabin:
on rear parcel shelf:
   - remove the speaker covers
   - remove the seat-belt devices
   - = Access to the strut mount

Unbelievably I think KYB shock absorber manufacturer has these

3358021 shock
SM9803 top mount

Google KYB UK for sales

No connection just used KYB insert for rear Gamma coupe shock and like them....
