Hi all,
Need help identifying this part, its a rubber bush that sits on top of the strut housing, as you can see its very much worn out. A part number to get it from Honda would be nice or possibly a Tein number as my car has Tein springs in it, or anything that I can go to a shop and buy 2 new ones. Also I'm in the market for silencer rubber that goes around springs. Any recommendations for any shops in Perth that would sell this stuff?

go to honda and take part with you looks like a stock oem rubber for your dc5 suspension
its called the "spring mounting cushion"
Thanks for the quick reply, now to follow up on that is aftermarket better than oem for something like this? because I can imagine honda charging me an arm and a leg for these.
As a side note after changing my springs on the weekend Im starting to experience subtle creaking noises when making sharp turns at low speed. Could I have possibly over tighten a nut some where? I'm going to be reinstalling my Tein's in the next couple of weeks, what if anything should I look out for...
Went to Honda parts today and they said that I need to replace the whole top of the strut assembly, which includes the plate, bearing and rubber. I just want to know does this sound right? Do I have to replace the whole unit or can I go aftermarket and just replace the rubber thats worn?
Something that I was expecting to be around $20 at most is now costing me $170
