Coilover Swap...Selling rear Air Bags (Arnott)

I'm doing the coilover swap sometime this week and I replaced my rears about 1.5 years ago with the Arnott struts.

So I will be selling the rear ones and I heard there is a way to transfer over the lifetime warranty, not sure how true that is but if anyone know how I can do that please let me know.

Thought I should offer them on here first before putting them on eBay, any offers?

I had a post here to Doug from arnott on this forum about the warranties and unfortunately he said its not transferable which is bull**** IMO
Good luck with sale

Thanks Hulk I was hoping they were, I heard as long as you get the transaction ID by a shop that has removed them you can but that might be bull****.

But realistically they are a pretty good product and should last longer than the OEM bags anyway. They wouldn't be offering lifetime warranty if their bags if they sucked


Well if anyone wants is interested I should have them off the car by next weekend

Of course, I just ordered new one Sunday and now I see this post... But, I paid $638 shipped for the pair which has the lifetime warranty. So your price is decent, but not sure for a few hundred dollars more, I would opt for new and a lifetime warranty.

$638 for the pair? brand new ? where did you find those? I paid $908 but this was last year. Maybe the price has gone down? I just looked online and couldn't find them for less than $800...Make sure you get Arnott not the knock off brands they have out there and also get the e55 not the e320 ones



I still have them if anyone is interested

Alexxw211 I will have to get the control arms, I'm having a shop install them so they are looking for pair of those for me. Apparently that's all you basically need besides some random bolts which they have already at the shop

I see what you are saying. I did not look at the pic when I purchased it. I talked to them about this and they assured me that it is the correct part and the picture may just be generic. But I will look at the part number on the spring to verify when I get it. Thanks for the heads up!
