Hi all, having just put Meyle rear dampers on with KYB springs, I'm having trouble getting hold of Meyle front dampers to match. TRW (OE as I understand) front dampers are available with KYB springs so will it be ok to mix them ? Thanks in advance.

The factory dampers were supplied by Delphi, but I'd try to source a matching set to the rear, to avoid any potential damping differences.

As I've had no luck sourcing Meyle fr. dampers I've gone with the TRW's with KYB springs I hope it doesn't affect things too much as it has the KYB springs all round & the dampers/springs are for the non-sport model.
