front n/s wishbone on way out, need one before MOT

Front n/s bottom wishbone needs replacing before MOT, heard a Yaris would be suitable for 2's from 1999yr, Can anyone confirm? A pair can be bought for less than £25!

There certainly have been threads about this before with discussion on which part fits so try searching using google including mr2roc in search words maybe?

Yes, Yaris ones for the same year are a perfect fit.

Not sure I'd go for £25 ones, though. I'd pay a little more.

Might as well do both sides

Yes the Yaris ones fit, I've got them on mine. Let me find the link i had for them.

Edit : link below - I only paid £17 for them!

Yaris ones fit, getting the old ones off is the fun part

I wonder what the difference in quality is between this at £13.64 and this at £506.26

I've bought a set as part of my planned complete front suspension refresh (did the rear last year), and settled for the cheapest I could find that actually pointed towards 'OE quality' - £70 a throw. Have to assume they are not telling porky pies!

I just got a set of these in the post today purchased via ebay / engergizedcustoms.

Not opened them yet but was slightly shocked they arrived wrapped in black plastic rather than in some sort of protective box! One hopes they were strong enough to withstand any transit abuse!

They'll suffer worse when on the car

Think those are the same ones I got - but without the 20% off deal that's currently running.

Yeah could be, were £70 each advertised, one pair left when i ordered these yesterday evening..

I bought the same ones and they came in black plastic but were in a big box and really well packed!!

Which makes me think they were abused in transit then!

I'll open them up and have a good look at them.
