      Because I'm an admin and can tell you whatever I want to.

      SEARCH, SEARCH, SEARCH! How many times can we tell you guys that the answers are here...



      Is that what you wanted? For me to directly show you what he already posted?!

      Here's the detailed information from his post incase you don't want to spend the time reading through all the replies:

      I'm using Mk3 Golf Non-VR6 adjustable height and dampening coilovers from Apex Racing. Retail price on them was $1800CAD, which is $400 more then I paid for my car. I didn't' pay that much though.

      On the rears, the only thing I needed to do was cut about 1/4" off the sleeve that goes through lower mount bushing. The Golf and Festiva rear struts were basically identical aside from that sleeve. Overall length as well as rod and housing length were identical.

      The front's were more trickier then the rears. The lower bolt holes were too far apart, so I needed to enlarge the upper bolt hole so that it would fit the Festiva spindle. After that was done, I had to figure out the upper strut mounts. I went through about 5 different combinations before figuring out that a VW Fox upper mount will fit perfectly in the gutted Festiva upper strut mount housing.

      That's it.
