Default Got my Ground Control...HELP!

I ordered Ground Control springs and Koni Yellow shocks. I know that the GC need to come with a special adapter for Koni's and Bilsteins. I ordered them that way...but I"m not sure what the "adapter" looks like. Anyone have any pics or a description? I just wanna make sure I got it. Thanks.

The GC threaded sleeves will have a black adapter "already" pressed into the bottom end of the sleeves. The Koni adapter is the same diameter as the Koni shock body. So when you slide the sleeves over the shock, you will see that it has a very snug fit and is centered on the shock. The Koni c-clips (perch settings) will seat right into the adapter.

Without the "Koni" adapters, you have to use the supplied o-rings to keep the sleeves snug and centered. Not ideal.

ok...uh...my threaded sleeves don't have anything rubber on either end. There is a rubber sleeve that's about 4 inches long that fits relatively snug inside the threaded sleeves. Is that the adapter? If not...will I have problems with just using the supplied O-rings? My other question is...do I still go by the instructions with the trimming of the bump stop etc...? HELP!
