That first one looks like an AIRWERKS set-up....Don't kknow much about them, but I have seen their front set-up and does'nt look nearly as nice....They just run Gas shocks with built airbags....Puts a little too much stress on the lower shock mount IMHO....These rear set-ups look fairly good though...Similar to the KCW deals...

the (engineneer ?) told me that as long as its not adjustable while you are driving then it is legal in nsw but if you can move it while driving no!, my beetle is not yet on the road but when i remember to get goods pics of it i will post them, at the moment it is in primer ready to be painted, all air lines and compressor are in as are the switches. have to work out how to dissable them when the car is running yet,or you can easly pull out all the air stuff rego it as std then fgure out the engineners report later...feww hope i've helped out someone? lol :bounce

could you put the switches under the bonnet? can't reach them there...

Go on Krooozin ... bag the bus ... it would look awesome.

Have seen those pics before. Neat setup and the show quality is high.

Use a relay so you cant get power through to the power unit while the key is anywhere but off.
