Shhhhhhhhhh you did not hear this from me, but the Megan are made in the same factory as the following brand(s)

Buddy Club

There may be more, but these are confirmed.

Ah, the inner workings of the aftermarket industry never cease to amaze me.

For that matter, go look at Megan's full catalog. Great company, great products, low prices. Its obvious they're a glorified reseller, but if that means a buck saved then so be it!

Hey all, Ive been running the Megans since Friday and Im pretty happy with them. As it has been said the instructions need some work but other than that they seem they will work fine. You will need to transfer the front top mounts from the oem struts to the coilovers but that seems about it.

The front height adjust is very easy and smooth. The clicks on the dampening adjust could be a little more "clicky" but they seem good.

As for drilling holes I dont understand and maybe I didnt read it right, but why? I just took of the entire under cowl and didnt have a problem accessing everthing.

But all in all a good buy in my opinion. I have a track day at Pocono in a month and I will give my impressions after that.

Oh and they are stiff........no body roll and not for the faint hearted. Pics up soon.

I didn't think the cutting would be needed. Thanks for clarifying. I love a nice stiff ride. May not even need any bars from what you are saying. Nice.

I see you have some bars and braces though.

Megan coilovers are manufactured in Taiwan. I contacted Megan and that is what they told me.
