I'm preparing to install PSS9's on my car. To minimize downtime, I was hoping to first build up the PSS9's with new mounts/bearings/hardware, then pull the old strut/spring units, chuck them in a box, and bolt in the PSS9's. Well I just discovered those little curved washer things (PN 996-343-107-03) cost $40 each, and I need 6 of them!!!

Seriously, where are the Chinese copycat operations when you need them? You could drive a nicer Porsche than mine by selling 5 cent funny-shaped washers for $20 each.

Anyway, if anybody has a set I'd be willing to pay $50 shipped. Otherwise I will just have to tear down my old struts and swap them over.

Thanks!
