Strut top spring retainers wanted

Thanks for the info,
I have just taken a pic of the top ring, I'm probably just going to machine up a couple of new top rings if there are no spares around.

'Should look similar to this (Jeff's photo, and probably GAZ):

I've never seen one like that Paul! IF I've got a top mount it'll look more like the one in Chris's posting above. But the hole may be bigger, something like an inch? I'll try to have a look tomorrow night and let you know.

Here's an old poor quality photo of a Leda strut with Hawk spring pan and beta top mount.
They are aluminium discs about 5" diameter, 3/4" thick, tapered to the outside with a hole from memory of about 1cm diameter in the middle.

Well that's the garage upended and the only ones I found were the bottom spring pans so the assumption is that I either gave them away already or they're still on the car. Sorry, can't help this time Paul!
