I got H&R Coilovers from the GB organised by SchnellVR? aka Jason, and when I opened the box I saw adjustable coilovers for the front and springs and shocks for the back.
Is it just me ? aren't they supposed to be adjustable at all 4 corners ?
I don't know how to feel about this, I never heard of "only adjustable in the front"
Comments are greatly appreciated.

The kit should come with adjustable spring perches that allow height adjustment for the rear. It attaches to the bottom of the spring... The shocks are supposed to separate on MKIV's...

They don't look adjustable to me, the part number for the damper is
H&R
Nr. D46-1010-1/1
VW Golf IV / Audi A3 2WD
HA-Stobdampfer
The springs are just plain springs...

Again, the rears are adjustable. H&R has what's called a spring perch in the kit. The springs on the rear corners are placed on grey mechanisms that allow you to vary the height in the rear. I have the H&R coil-overs.

when you opened your box you should have the 2 front units which are the shock and spring in one, and you should have a 2 yellow rear shocks, 2 springs, and 2 grey pieces of metal, the spring perch that everyone is talking about. The springs will sit on top of those two perches, and thats how you adjust the height in the rear.
