This replacement for the bonnet lift lever pin was not cheap, but definitely worth the money. The original plastic one flexed during use, and finally failed. The X8R metal pin immediately gave a mu... See more

Quality Product!
It is a really good, quality product, with clear fitting instruction and comes with great service.
Part not fitted yet so can't comment
Part not fitted yet so can't comment, but parts previously ordered, fitted well and worked as described. Quick delivery.
Delivery excellent, product too long
Delivery was super fast which was brilliant.
The seals are effective replacements for the old ones.
My only observation was that the parts were specifically designed / ordered for a Toyota Aygo and as such I expected them to be cut to size. They were in fact about a foot too long which meant they needed to be trimmed, which required cutting the rubber and metal insert which left an unclean edge. The fact that I had a foot to practice with different cutting tools was, I suppose, a benefit, but it would have been better if they were cut to the correct length in the first place.

Girls can fix car problems!
Excellent service from X8R and I will definitely use them again if I need to. Bought a kit to repair my broken tailgate handle, a common problem with the Nissan Qashqai. It arrived quickly with full step by step visual instructions plus they have videos online if you prefer that. I used the video and had my phone next to me pausing in between each step. Successfully fixed my car and saved a lot of money in the process. Just brilliant.
Great product, easy to fit & incredible difference …
A simple process to change the vanos seals, easy to follow instructions on YouTube. The difference in acceleration is incredible. Highly recommend you give it a go yourself and save around £1,300 by sending it to a garage.
