Apart from Steve not being online very often as far as I know, you might wanna take the time to read the first post:

Option 2, no longer available
2. For the people that don't want the DIY version, I'll do a completely made up set of struts which will take you 5 minutes to swap over. This is on an exchange basis though, and it requires you to be able to swap the struts over within 7 days of receiving the new ones, and send me your old struts back, ready to be modded for another person.Note. This kit no longer comes with the heat shrink applied, as it was found to be hindering the operation of the spring. Most are opting to paint the springs black or colour coded to their car.

The "No longer available" part might be of interest to you.

Also I wouldn't just put your e-mail on a forum. Spam bots might see it, and other could possibly use it for bad things. Personal info should only be shared via PM.

I have this device fitted and am generally very pleased with it. However, there does appear to be a small risk of water leakage around the boot hinges. There's info about it on the forum, so worth reading the discussion to get a balanced view of the advanteges/disavantages.

Fitted mine over a year ago and no issues at all. Infact the springs have softened a bit now making the lift a bit softer and its now easier to put the boot down too. Its a mod I like a lot.

Most people have no problems, but a significant minority report gasket fatigue around the boot hinges. This causes water leaks into the boot. It's worth knowing about if you decide to fit the lifting springs and get a wet boot afterwards.

This mod does without a doubt cause damage to the boot hinges. And a result of this is water leakage into the boot. I removed the springs from mine and would not fit them again.
