Buy the ****, its like $4.00 from Koni North America, you can buy it right off their website. I think the flat **** is the one you need.

There are no clicks on the rebound adjustment. That is an advantage to buying the ****. You count the bumps on the **** to know where you are. Eight bumps on the ****. Total of around 2-2 1/2 turns possible.

You only need one ****. Set the shocks to full soft and install them with the little flat piece turned the same way on both sides to make adjustment easier side to side.

Rears are easy to install, fronts will be more work, but they don't need a ****. You should get a 2.5mm allen wrench to adjust them with. Koni website tells you how.

FYI,

Like I said earlier you only need one ****. You don't leave them on the shocks. Just swap from shock to shock as you need to adjust then put it in the glove box.
