Hi,
you need a suspension leg complete with spring, just get the side you need.
Where ever you are, your best bet is a breakers and probably best let the mobile mechanic get it, he should be in the know.
Good luck
Bob.

Re: Help me cos I'm a woman garages charge me more !
Go to ebay and type in renbreakers I used them for a drive shaft and hub for my dci megane, they were very good and reasonable prices. If you go to one of their listings there should be contact details, will have a look and seeif i have their number. They will arrange delivery to your address

Re: Help me cos I'm a woman garages charge me more !
just checking my phone and while i did buy parts from ren breakers through ebay the othe one i used off ebay was ren parts and their number is 01427 873808 and they are very hepfull, they can check if they have parts for your car, think they take your reg number and check what model yours is. They are breakers and if its not already on the shelf they may have one in the yard that can be taken off.
By the way Grandad bob gives good advice, earlier this year i rebuilt both sides of my front suspension and ended up adding a new hub and driveshaft on N/side. Im still suffering knee and joint pain from 5 mon ths ago ! Bob's advice helped lots.

Just looked at their web site and if they took your reg number then part should be ok, thing you might want to ask is does it include spring and top mount.

Re: Help me cos I'm a woman garages charge me more !
Hi,
if something has collapsed, the cheapest way is to get a strut and spring complete, just the side you need.
Breakers won't separate the spring unless it was broken anyway.
Check with whoever you buy from it's complete, then it's a lot easier for your mechanic.
The airbag light when the seat is moved is probably just connections under the seat.
Once you're up and running look up posts on here and the net, you'll probably be able to do that yourself.
Fingers crossed for better luck
Bob.
ps also try breakers on gumtree for your area, someone's got one in their garage or breaking a car.
