There was a major supermarket group of that name in France 'til the late 80's early 90's

Back OT...
Energy Suspension polybush (even if you have to buy the whole kit?) would be cheaper than a new arm from Honda?
And should be available off the shelf?
I think funkypower do them? Or ebay of course.

Mr toasty tyres wrote:As the title suggests i'm new to the forum been here a couple of times as a guest to get some info for my 5th gen, great help and many thanks to those who have devoted there time to these cars,

now to the situation I took my lude in for an mot only to told the rear passenger lower control arm bush the one which the camber plate bolts through had worn witch I wasn't aware of as now ive got the arm of and have ordered new camber plate bolts from Honda as I had to cut the rusty suckers out, now Im stuck as to were I can get new bushes from ive tried local motor factors who are very good but as with these cars getting parts is a bit of a sod as the year before I had to change the rear lower ball joints which proved fun,

anyway I need the new rear bushing and I know Honda only sell the arm and polybushing is probably the best and cheapest option but I don't really now were to get them from apart from Australia or America.

also is there any were in England or Europe that does them

or does the 4th gen rear lca bushing fit the 5th gen is there any truth in that

any help would be greatly appreciated as im pulling my hair out and the mot 10 day window is running out .ps sorry for the mammoth first post
@Mr toasty tyres Use 4th gen bushes they fit no problem ;) It is what I used.

#23 rear lower arm bush - Honda part no 52354-SS0-023 - £27 each
