I recently got a set of adj Koni front shocks, They don't come with the lower spring seat on the shock. You are supposed to use the factory seat. I looked in the electronic catalogs and can't find any spring seat for the front shock. Looks like it's made on the shock. Wouldn't be such a problem if the car had the factory shocks but they were replaced with Tokiko's (blue)
Any one put the Koni's on before. Thinking about cutting the lower plate off of the Tokiko's and putting them on the koni's
If the lower plate is removeable I'll trade the tokiko's for the plates from the factory front shocks.
or even trade the tokiko's for a set of old front factory shocks.

The Konis reuse the factory steel spring seats. You should be able to hammer them off of the factory shocks. I might have some of the perches around if you need some. Bilsteins come with completely new seats because they use a C clip mounting system.
