1 - shack absorbers - get uprated ones, koni's or eibach pro ones, both available from awesome gti

2 - bushes - get the solid ones from seat main dealers and uprated ones from the likes of demon tweeks

3 - drop links - motor factors - mk3 2003 mondeo ones are shorter so move the arb to avoid banging noises and work perfectly

4 - products - clean your car or elite - you need rim wax mate or poor boys wheel sealent, both awesome products
