I am not 100% sure on this, but did see he same things available when I was looking at springs. The 780 might be for the 3dr and 980 for the 5dr, but wouldn't have thought the number of doors made much difference in weight as the car is still the same size. The two waits could go on engine size so for a 1.0/1.2 the 780 or larger engine like 1.8 could be the 980.

yeah si the 980 is for the 1.8 sri and 1.7 dti engines as they are heavier and the 780 is for the lawnmower 1.4,1.2 and 1.0 models

Just spoke to Scott this morning, and the 790 is the right one for the smaller engine, as per Chewy's comments :)

if u have the springs , then lkook on the box or on the spring itself for a part number.. there may also be the weight rating onit also.
