Only that they were marked the wrong way round - the one marked left should be fitted on the right & vice versa!

Mine are the eccentric ones, and they would only fit that way - the 'wrong' way! It was a widespread issue (not exactly a problem!) at the time, but they've probably sorted it out by now.

The first set of polybush eccentrics that I bought were marked for the 'Irish' market,but the second set(back end of last year)were correctly marked.
The aim is to move the bottom of the wheel out and forward,hold the 'lollypop' and bush against the car to make sure you have it correct! Then check again...
