No prob, think 910 struts have the same bolt spacing as the struts you got.

ok so now i'm guna come on the cruise i need a list of things left to do

brake brackets - in progress
drivers seat mount - in progress
my park lights come on when i use the brake - it'll be right for now
remount center console
secure parcel tray and speakers
plug up old fuel exit hole
split pins in the steering arms
get tyre changed back over
mount fire extinguisher

i just realised that i'm going to have to find another spare exactly like i have got as my wheels, because if i get a flat i have to have the same tyres on the back for the lsd, and i can't run anything smaller than a 15 on the front because of the brakes hmmmmmmmmm

oil change
spanner check EVERYTHING
and a bit of drive time to check everthings ok.
