What is the little metal "pin" in the red knob...
Yeah, it's the pins for locking the dampers in a set position.
They can either be tapped out and removed or only halfway to allow adjustment.
Your mates car's dampers are either still pinned or the pins have been completely removed.
Hoz.

The dials are held in place by a grub screw, you need a small allen key to remove it. Some grub screws are held in place with loctite so you my need to heat the dial up with a heat gun to melt the loctite before it will budge. Once you have removed the grub screw the dial will come off and you just need to knock the pin out/halfway, then just put it back on.
Voila !

They were replaced by BG Motorsport when I got them serviced, thats why they no longer have a big hole through them.
They said that because I removed the pins (completely) water and crap was getting in through the hole, which isn't good.

I think it was like a few quid extra for the dials, not much, and worth every penny anyways but you dont have to get them replaced.
Whats the damage? - Do you mean why did I get them serviced ? Basically because the handling was a bit 'off'. There is a massive thread on it somewhere called 'unstable at speed'.
