Wild Pony motorsports made a set of Don Gardner... you could try them. I would rather have plates as well, but I am running bolts right now. I would much rather be able to run -3 degrees of camber or so up front at autox events and then drop it to -2 after.

if you find them let me know, ask if they will work with coil over set ups that come with the top mounts already installed ie HKS Hypermax coil overs

Call them back. Right now they're the only place to buy them for the tC.

i had talked to Tein about trying to get a hold of their pillowballs, but they were unsure about whether or not it would work with TRD/Progress coilovers...and at $250, i didn't want to risk it...

also note that the Wild Pony camber plates have issues with the TRD/Progress ones as well and they are trying to figure out a solution...

Still waiting to hear back on some things. I am told I may have some info by early next week. Maybe a decent price on some good plates if it pans out, but we will see.

I am still checking in on it. Was supposed to hear something today regarding it. Well, actually, it was being asked about in a meeting today, so it may be a bit before I hear anything.

Got a bit more info today. As you and others have run into, there are fitment issues when trying to make kits fit both the stock and aftermarket struts. The reason is that some aftermarkets use different thread pitches and shaft diameters than OEM. This is being worked on and a group buy looks to be on the horizon, but not until they can ensure the plates will work with the different types of struts. I will be hearing something as soon as this is worked out, so hopefully we can get enough people to support a decent group buy.
