    thanks Sam!.

    is it hard to change it myself?!

    and will it effect the car
    If they indeed stuffed the car up, you have the right to go back to them and have it refitted.

    It's not super hard to change it yourself, but you require the right tools. It's easier if you remove the wheels as well.

If that occurs the end links are out of position and actually prevent the springs full compressing, hence incorrect ride height. This is extremely bad for your car. You will end up breaking end links. The sticker just reaffirmed suspiscions.

        Just sent you another PM. Please the best advice I can give you is to call them. If they've fitted it upside down they should really send someone out to repair it on site. I know that's what we'd do here at our workshop.

            The car is still drivable. Sway bars limit body roll. There are 4 tie points on the rear sway bar. If an end link breaks on the way over there just get them to replace it. Have they acknowledged fault yet?

                the sway bar won't fall off, its still held on by the brackets, it just won't work thats all but you don't need a sway bar to drive the car from A to B.

                  and if there is no sway bar?! will the car just be really weak at the rear and it will sway everywhere?

                    the car might understeer( you turn the steering wheel but the car won't turn and keep going straight), a little bit but I doubt you will be able to feel it. You will be fine!
