    Not on this car but I used them before. There is a forum member from SE Asia who had similar ones installed and was happy with results.

    Okay, thanks.

    Here is why I asked. I installed some I bought from another local store, but they weren't big enough to fit between the coils and would slip out. I'm interested in finding a spacer that is tall enough to stay in place. I made a photo album here on the experiment.

    NOTE:
    Mirage is not available in the selection list at Airlift while Amazon will tell this will not fit into the Mirage.

    However, this fitted perfectly into my 2014 Mirage Hatchback

    Yup. I was thinking the same thing. Easy installation, foolproof design (that is, how can it increase stress or overstress the existing design?), ADJUSTABLE.

    On the other hand, maybe it's not so foolproof. What could go wrong?

    Just weld it back up or get it welded if you can't do it yourself a muffler shop can do it

    I'm more pissed my brake pads only last 15k miles. I hope the Ceramics I got last longer... I really want those stiffer 2017 rear springs. If I had those I might not even need the Sway or it might not get wrecked. I'm going to take mine off though and apply another sealer. Also, if you have rust anywhere on your car, here is a chemically great way to stop the rust and protect it while being able to paint over it!!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_converter

    While my car is on the lift I'm going to apply an under body sealer to critical items and apply some paint spray and or acrylic :P I want this thing to be clean when I sell or trade. 100k Miles but looks like it has 20k O.o

    I would not recommend rust converter for your sway bar. Rust is very brittle, and the sway bar likes to flex... Its possible the rust converter converts the rust into something more flexible, but I doubt it. The best way is to physically remove the rust, then recoat it.


    Custom Mirage products: Cruise control kit, Glove box light, MAF sensor housing, Rear sway bar, Upper grill block

    Current project: DIY Nitrous oxide setup for ~$100
