Guys,

Just picked up the SVO from shipping and was going to have it inspected for registration. Did a quick look around and found one of the bolts that connects the front sway bar to the control arms has rusted through and is broken.

I've looked around and found replacements sets from:
Suspension, Part number9.8121R and Part number 9.8121G. Not sure of the difference between the R and the G besides the color of the bushings.

Steeda, Part number 122-9-8121-G

Prothane, Part Number: 19-417 BLACK

Would like to know which part would fit and work the best, or a recommendation of a good replacement that someone has used.

Thank you for any recommendations and help.

I prefer the Energy Stuff myself. The only difference between the G & R part numbers IS the colour. Apart from that they're identical. I usually go with black. I have bought Prothane stuff in the past as well, not much of a difference really. If you can find something locally and the price is right, go with it.

Wait, just noticed you're in Germany.....how does that complicate things??? You may get away with just replacing the bolt if you need a temporary fix for a visual inspection but you'd be better to replace the whole thing in the long run:):):)
