Do you have pics of the Bilsteins and what parts are on there?
Do your coilovers have solid top mounts front and rear? If so, you'll probably have some difficulty mounting standard type top mounts to the rear as coilover springs require a special upper spring pan that is usually only compatible with a bearing type solid upper mount. Some companies like AST use an adapter plate that functions as the upper spring pan but slots into the bottom of the standard mount.
