i know it sounds stupid, but do you mounted under the strut mount nuts or over it, or does it matter!?

my front one is under it..

You mount them under the nuts, that is how it stays on the studs ha.

you can put them under the stock nuts or above them just as long as the strut bar is bolted down. in the front the stock front bar in europe i think goes above the nuts

you are correct about the OEM euro front strut bar... it goes on top of a set of nuts since there is a lip on it.

For the rear I put my strut bars under the lowest nut (right on the tower). It just seemed right. :shrug:

Yeah. The plate enhances the structural integrity of the strut mount.
