    Need Help with coilovers plz

    I am unsure as to what 'tops' I can/should put on these..

    I heard of a 'Top hats'..

    I know I can take the existing upper pillow ball mounts off and use them but is there something better like above..?

    This is the tops of the coils I am using - BC Racing BR series coilovers.



    Thank U!

    I am confused. So you have those BC BR coilovers pictured and you don't want to use the top mounts they have?

    Those are top hats on the coilovers you are holding.

    You take out your old shocks and springs and wack these in.

    thats it.

    Pillow ball top mounts are for Macpherson strut setups off memory.

    you dont have that option for your car as its double wishbone.

    lol i told you that in the first PM you sent me but it confused you.

    You've got a complete shock replacement, they just may be abit harsh as the top bit loks solid metal, not sure what's underneath, also that's a BC coilover not a buddyclub.

    These taiwanese instructions are pretty funky...but to adjust the height,do I just undo the bottom one (red arrow) and grab the cylinder (blue arrow) and turn it?
