Am I right in saying that there are two different types of torsion bars available for the saloon bootlid? One set for the large rear wing and a set for without the rear wing? Going by Rimmers there are two different types?

Looks like you are right bra. Looks to be half a dozen variants of #8 available.

Interesting !

I have fitted the extreme spoiler recently, not a factory option on mine.
I have adjusted the bars to the second position as well but it didn't change anything, the boot lid sticks when I press the open button, but doesn't fall when fully opened.

Should I find another torsion bars for the large spoiler ?

Yours does what mine does and it had the spoiler fitted from the factory.

Mines parts label has been ripped off but you can see where it was, about in the centre of one of the bars where they cross over.
