If you pm byers he had the same problem he rang bc helpline and they said there was a batch that got sent out with dodgy top mounts he gave them the serial number to make sure they were part of the dodgy batch and within 24 hours he had a brand new set of upgraded top mounts a think the problem with them was the rubbers

I got mine from apex Performance they had mine on record as I got them from them and they are a main distributor for bc coilivers so they sent a new set of rear top mounts out as there was a problem with the compound got them next day

If you take the bak seat out you will b able to see the top mounts! On byers car on one side the the strut was not sat Center of the top mount and was hitting the metal on the top mount!

I would ring bc first thing in mornin mate see what they say and all been well hopefully they send you a new set out then if they still knock you no its not the mounts and probs look into it deeper yours have done 500 miles so yours have had road use byers were only used for show events so hadent even been over road or had weight in the back and as for having your brother in the back to check them out personally i would of said to our lass jump in the back of there why we try the suspension out lol!!!!!

All sympathy to you bro if you going to take the seats out then make him sit in the back while you drive around. He must really owe you some favours
