Re: Genuine new Xantia strut top on eBay
At that price I'd have considered it even if it were an offside one which I don't need.
Should anyone require an offside/drivers side non hydractive strut top I have a very near new spare.

Re: Genuine new Xantia strut top on eBay
Keep it dommo! Get it coverted when you need it.. Theres no difference between normal and hydractive tops other then the larger pipe fixing.. So all that needs dooing WITH CARE is drill the small hole out to a larger size and tap it out to the size of the larger pipe... They are easy to drill as they are not hardend...Dommo wrote:At that price I'd have considered it even if it were an offside one which I don't need.

I know its possible ive seen it done and it worked sucessfully.. I cannot remember the drill and tap size just now but will get it.. This then means its good to collect good 3.5 mm tops they can then be used as either with a bit of simple modification...

Re: Genuine new Xantia strut top on eBay
I have bought it Dave, not arrived yet though. I had considered drilling and tapping the thread size to be a bit larger, if it were a nearside one I'd have done that long ago however I've effectively got two offside ones so I don't need it drilling out just yet.

Re: Genuine new Xantia strut top on eBay

I believe it's only the V6 that has the thicker struts... I'm pretty sure the Activa has the standard ones but not 100% dead sure on the 2.1 and 110 HDi
