Ball joint id

Trying to id my bottom front balljoint, but I don't recognise it. They seem to be threaded and screwed into the lower wishbone. Any idea what part it is?

Ta!

That's the sausage! All the rubbers are split top and bottom both sides. What car is it from or can it be ordered off the code?

Cheers!

Metro IIRC?

Part No shown above appears to be Citroen item.

It likely is, but I don't believe that's not the OPs ball joint, I assume just a random one to suggest the style.
OP will need to post some pics and hope it can be I.D'd

looks like a metro one but the metro has a full hex,that one looks like it needs a special tool so must be french

I don't think the picture is the OPs joint!!

Cheers for all the replies people! My ball joint looks very much like the peugeot item above, including a notch that looked like it needs a c spanner (similar to a coil over one) to remove it. Sadly my phone battery was so flat I couldn't take a picture!

Thanks!
