IE camber plates ID?! - Works with Megan coilovers?

Does anyone the ID of the pillowball of the Ireland Engineering front camber plates? I want to know if my incoming megan coilovers can use them or not. The -EU kit that megan provides is 0 camber so I want to use my camber plates to keep the -1.25.

I thought all Megan comes with adj camber plates, which is one big selling point.

The "EU Streets Coilovers" do not. For about another $100 the "Coilovers" do have camber plates.

Don't waste your time calling IE. I called them (twice) to ask about simple questions and they are morons. The ID of the bearing of the stock plate I just measured is 14mm. IE is identical as it is just a shade tree mechanic part made of Bimmer Z3 rubber strut mount parts the company try to keep as trade secret.

I thought all "Euro" convey upscale and performance. Could have fooled me.

Toto bidet has no equal. So Euro is no upmarket except marketing hype. But then Toto's is really a washlet.
