Koni Yellow shocks require longer bolts

[floodgatez]

so i brought my car to Street Performance to let Jimmy install the Koni Yellow shocks and Eibach Springs.

He noticed that if we're using Koni Yellow shocks, the bolts that attach the shocks to the car isn't the "right" length. the head of the Koni Yellow shocks are too wide versus the OEM mazda ones. therefore, because the head of the (koni yellow) shocks are bigger, the bolt would probably be screwed in 'just enough' to stay on safely. i doubt this is a big issue. but it's something i'd like to bring to attention for all those mazda owners riding on Koni Yellow shocks.
