i have a 52 plate cooper and i have just bought new front lower arm rear bushes

they cost me £100 and have now found out its £100 pound to fit them.

Can it be done at home as i do all of the work on my mini myself and am very good at these type of things but i have been told you need a special tool to remove them and thats quite pricey.

Has any one done it before as ive heard they are an absolute joke to fit.
