Re: ignition question

Being changed to negative earth,the wires would have been switched on the coil right?
Making the SW negative instead of positive
And CB now positive instead of negative.

Does that sound correct?
I dont want to damage the new kit wiring it wrong.

Re: rear shocks

ESM do them,
I only know because i recently fitted some front telescopics on my car.

The front kit is bolt on,with a little slot needing to be cut into inner wing,
While the rear kit is also bolt on but will require some welding.
