Looking for Part Number.








[Borrowed those pics from k-huevo / MeV's spring installation instruction]


Anyways, I have been searching for the part number for the 2 piece yellow rubber thing that goes on top of the rear struts. I can't find it on RealOEM... Anyone have nay ideas? Even better, anyone got pair of the rubber thing for sale?

Thank you all in advance..
