Happy for your retirement! So gelous hahahaha! Nice to ear that this pedders top mount are doing great ... I now have camber plates but I didn't track at all , due to work , daughter etc etc....so wanted to switch to something more ear friendly! @Muskoka800 and how the Koni are doing, they where my second option after the tein Endurapro plus (actually the same as Koni but tein brand).... I'm biased with this tein strut....

I’m very pleased with the Koni’s. I adjust them to about 25% for DD which provides a very stock ride quality over our frost heaved roads. A 50%+ setting is working for lapping at TMP (Toronto Motorsports Park) which does have some bumpy areas, specifically through the high speed turn 1.

Little update: i received the pedders top mount and reading the instructions leaflet they wrote that is necessary to use the oe conical washer between the top spring hat and the top mount. But I don't remember our strut came with this washer and neither the oem diagram shows it. Any ideas about it?

EDIT from Pedders online support: our platform doesn't need this washers (Impreza/legacy does).

IIRC this was discussed many years ago. Not in reference to the pedders mounts, just the the OEM mounts. At the time it was determined that the factory parts have the washer integrated and therefore a separate part isn't required.
