GC Coilovers and Koni Yellows
I recently had some Ground Control coilovers and Koni Yellows installed on my S2000. The shop that installed them had never installed this type of setup on any car. The install went fine with the possibility of one exception: there wasn't any sort of bolt that fastened the Koni's to the GC's. Essentially the weight of the vehicle keeps the Koni's in the GC's. Is this normal? Should there have been some sort of bolt that holds these two pieces together?

Not a happy camper right now. My GC coilovers and Koni Yellows were installed and I picked up my car yesterday afternoon. On the drive home I heard some squeaking, but I couldn't pinpoint the location. On the drive to work this morning, the squeaking continued, and as if that wasn't bad enough when I went over some speed bumps I heard some clanking. Sounds like one or more the the shock assemblies is (are) loose or not properly installed.
Any thoughts?

Concerning pics, are you referring to exterior pics of my car since it has been lowered? I am holding off on taking new pics because within the next couple weeks I am having some other goodies installed.

If the squeaking is normal...I am not cool with that and as much as I hate wasting money I would go back to stock.

As far as the squeaking, I'm not nure if it's normal or not. I thought I was making the sound because I have a gutted trunk. It doesn't bother me though since these cars make so many noises any ways. Hopefully others can chime in, I think I have me koni's set way too stiif also, so maybe at half way the noises will change. Im not sure
