Suspension question? Will 1.5 dci springs fit a 1.9 dci 120

Hey dudes and dudettes!

Just wondering if a set of cobra springs for 1.5 dci would be ok on 1.9 dci 120?

Thanks!

im pretty sure that the 1.9dci springs are higher rated because of the increased weight.

The standard renault springs are different anyway

And possibly Snap

A spring specifically for my car snapped so i certainly wouldnt be up for putting some lower rated springs on, although when it snapped i went to a scrappy and picked up some springs from a petrol meg, just the rear two, to make do with till i got my new springs sent out, which took 6months of arguements and phone calls between three companys.
