Hi Robin,
I've checked the part number of my Apex Springs.

They are marked 20-10352 HA 219/03

I also re-checked their current compressed length and it is 170mm. As I said, that is with no bodywork, petrol, driver or passenger.

By the way, the centre of my top bump stop "bolt" is directly in line with the outer edge of the rear box section that takes the rear bumper, when viewed from the back of the car.

hope this helps,

Peter
