You cant actually 'reset' the camber on a 9n to a standard position after lowering it, there is no adjustment for it. You can only set the camber side to side to ensure that it is equal on each side by adjusting the subframe on its mountings (detailed in the workshop maual)

Got the shocks from Jackson Tuning on (ahem) Club Polo. And used Spax
-50mm springs from POTN.

Handles alot more positively on highspeed cornering and roundabouts, the ride can be a bit harsh on poor roads, and theres plenty of them in Edinburgh, but I can live with that.
Also put Powerflex bushes on it because after lowering the wishbone bushes started squeaking quite badly but the new bushes sorted that out.
