Re: 2007 Lotus Exige S

Got the rear toe links installed, first bought a cheap chinese cobalt bit and broke it immediately, then got a quality high speed steel bit and everything went super smooth. Stock holes were around .31", I drilled them out to about .44", so not a lot but enough for the bigger toe link bolt to go through.

Stock vs aftermarket, you can see the larger diameter bolt on the new one:

New one installed:


How it looks from under the car, the bolt also holds in the lower A arm:


Rear wheel steering engaged, also liking the front camber:


Also I removed one camber shim from the fronts, and two shims from the rears, hope to get an alignment Sunday or Monday. But it should be a little over -2* camber on each wheel.
