What are they? I hear a lot about them when referring to Tein coilovers. And since I plan on buying some soon, figured it would be good to know.

 

They are the pieces that the top of the spring seats in/on that attaches to the top of the shock shaft that allows you to attach the top of the suspension assembly to the car.(sorry for the run on )
Do you need them??? Probably not unless your searious about your cars performance or you race it. Other wise the stockers off the original shocks should work and you will still retain a quiet ride.

 

I have 2 tein pillow ball mounts that I'm looking to sell if you are interested

used for like 4 months I'm looking for $200 canadian

email me if you want em zcvivek@hotmail.com

 

Well I think I know what there are....but not 100% sure. Are they the same as the aluminum tophats that i have with my GC coilovers?

 

not the top hat on some GCs. remember that piece on top of the spring where two bolts go onto.. they poke into the engine bay. thats where the pillow mount replaces your stock top hat. hth
