Hi Tommy,

I have the KW clubsport's and yes, you have it right and it is a pain in the ass! Pretty much have to undo the 3 x 13mm nuts holding top mount to the strut housing. As you start to go over around 1.75 deg neg then the bolt heads gradually become inaccessible as they get pushed 'in' to centre of car and therefore are covered by the strut housing/body shell.

Only way I can do it is dropping the whole strut and undoing the adjuster bolts while I have it 'hovering' in the arch while supported by the jack. Will be spending some time just measuring and marking the camber with paint marker on top mount before going back to the ring this summer.

Other than that, great shocks. Damping is spot on, even manages control of the uprated springs on Scottish pot holed roads.
