Just saw an SVO sway bar on ebay for a pretty decent price and wondering if it's worth getting? Has anybody fitted these, do they make much difference in terms of stability and handling?
Also how easy/hard is it to fit?

I'd put good shocks in before a sway bar.
Not sure how much difference they work on the Falcons though ... but on my previous Proton ... it made a hell of a difference putting a stronger rear item in it. I presume putting a stronger front sway bar would be best for a RWD though ... otherwise it'd be an interesting drive in a wet. Although matching front and rear sway bars can be effective ... just don't go overboard on the rear one.

It will make more difference on an AU1 than on an AU2 - AU2s have weird linkages.
