I need some help fitting gaz coilovers and fixed top mounts to a corsa b. I didn't get the spacers or anything with the top mounts to fit so need some help from those who have fitted them. Im guessing I need 19mm diameter top hat spacers but what size is the thread of the strut? Can anyone point me in the right direction and will i need anything else ?

Thanks Gary

They won't fit as the bearings in the fixed top mounts are wider and the strut top thread bolt is wider than the standard strut hopefully the kit compbrake are sending out will fit thanks for the comments tho
