Hi mate, I actually emailed a US Supplier of "Scooby921" Collars for those shocks a couple of says ago, to see if they'll ship them over here. If they get back to me I'll let you know.
If not, any machine / engineering shop should be able to find some steel washers to do the job, or even mill you the collars. Just need to know length, internal diameter and external diameter.

doupt it, its some sort of washer long enough to cover the shoulder of the shocks as i have 02 struts on a 05 blob with 05 top mounts and the 05 shocks have a smaller shoulder on them so just trying to make them perfect as the shocks are a1 condition.
