I would have a pair of the little strut bottom spacers handy in case the Bils do not seat tightly with the gland nut. You do not want rattling struts. I have seen cars that needed one spacer (out of two struts), a spacer on each side (R and L), or no spacers in either strut tube. Turbo and year rules to determine need are not reliable, you will have to see when fitting. I'd have them on hand for the job.
