If your going to do anything to them Change the adjuster bolts for ones with larger Allen heads as they round off fairly easily.
I know this and was thinking about replacing, good point to go up in size

Hi guys, a question for the KW Clubsport crew.

Is it easy to adjust the camber ?
Can you share some pics of the top mounts in the car ?

Set the KW's with the camber at 2 degrees and the three bolts holding the struts pulled as far out as possible and tighten, when you get to circuit losen strut brace and three bolts push strut in as far as possible and tighten all up this should give you 3 degrees, was recomended this by other CSl trackies works great.

this works well and an easy adjustment only takes 2mins to adjust

What is the maximum camber that you can set with KW Clubsport top mounts ?

So, with the four existing screws on the KW top mount is difficult to make the adjustment or maybe because two of the four screws are moving during the adjustment beneath the wheel arch.

If this happens, Turner Motorsport and Nitron have better and easier adjustable top mounts.
