Its really hard to get a decent photo.... I might have something somewhere...
Was there anything in particular you needed to see or wanted to know?
All I can say, is that the mounts are crap, and the SVA tester was not happy with it until I argued with him

Are you using the standard rear springs? If you are then I would suggest that is not a very good idea!
I made up a set of brackets that sit in the "spring seat" and a set of brackets that slide into the chassis tube above the spring seat and
then bolted a coilover inplace.....
I do have a set of coilovers that were fitted to the car briefly before I changed my mind and fitted something else if you want them instead of the
coil spring....
The only reason I didnt keep these was that the ride height was unacceptably high in my opinion... so I went for a set of protech dampers..... But
if you are happy with a slightly higher ride height.... these might work for you!

You can see the brackets bolted onto the suspension seats on the arms..
These are the origional coilovers I fitted...
These were the new ones... (notice the reduced ride height)
