These washers have a different depth that the factory strut top plate washers. They engage the rubber bushings all the time giving the car a much firmer feel and eliminating the "pogo" effect that many users complain about after installing lowering springs.

i had sent ssc an email a while back asking for pricing and i asked about the anti pogo washers and they said they never heard of them so i dont know how much of a difference they make if any.

You got it.
You got it.
No, I didn't. I was told they aren't necessary. I have no "pogo" feel whatsoever. Springs are great, my favorite mod for sure.
I don't think I need 'em....no pogo. The ride is near factory.
Yep, I asked about them and they said they weren't necessary. Their springs are a cut above though...a definite good mod choice for sure.

Since we're waaaaaaay off topic already, let me chime in:
I have the halos as well, and have had them as long as (longer than?) anyone else here. Nick's experience is way worse than any I've ever heard of...and more than a few at NAIOA have these lights. Mine get foggy once in a while, but not often at all...and it goes away almost immediately. Occasionally do they fog up at the pressure washer places, but never in the driveway. The lenses do not show any yellowing. The halos themselves are good...but the ballast/inverter boxes are poor quality and can go bad quickly. Mine have been fine, though, for many months...can't remember how long the newest set of lights have been installed. They can be replaced with the same cheap units for $20/pr., or you can buy better quality after-aftermarket ballasts/inverters for around $30-40 with a warranty.
Regarding the light output, I have the DDM tuning HIDs with standard H3 5000k HID bulbs (not H3c - smaller, foglight bulbs). The output is great...plenty of light.
Lastly, I have the SSC springs on KYB GR2 struts and get a little of the pogo (bouncy) effect...wishing that I installed the special washers, but decided against them.

Overall guys I love the DDM HIDs in 6k and 3k. 6k is the perfect "just blue" temp I was looking for and the 3k fogs are perfect in the fog and they look downright evil at night.
Sorry for the crappy pic....had to crop myself out of the pic.
and sorry for the
Mel and the gang.
