Have you a URL for the Swedish website?

I know how to change the P2 bush and I would imagine it to be a 'similar-but-not-exactly-the-same' process. If I can check the website I can get back to you.

I must point out that rebushing the early wishbone is a somewhat risky business, you could go to the expense and trouble of rebushing only to find it fails the next MOT on a knackered balljoint. I'll help as much as I can.
