As seen above is one of the front coilovers set up from my Ksports. My first question is when installed, which way does the top plate face? I would assume I need to beable to move toward and away from the engine bay (camber adj?). If anyone knows how to adjust this type of set up, can I make adjustemts while everything is bolted together or only when it is off the car? Finally, I have some sort of rubber bushings the coilovers came with(as seen in the pic), I have no idea what they are for. They are donut like, but have a cut on one side so as to be able to slide them onto a shaft from the side as opposed to sliding on from the top ot bottom of a shaft. Unfortunately the set did not come with very good install directions. I have emailed them but no response as of yet. Any help from someone with experience would be great.

The K sport logo would face the engine bay. You adjust by loosening the set screws. Taking the weight of makes adjustment easier.

Wonderful! I am still rather confused as to how the pillow top works. It seems that the top mount as seen above can move to almost any angel. I am worried it does not lock into place and you acn never have a set alighnment.
