Please help me out - SPT Spring Perch Question

I went to put in my SPT spring/strut combo the other night and ran into a nasty surprise... The upper spring perch did not work at all because the new springs are a smaller diameter. Are all the new Subaru coils this same smaller diameter? I am assuming I can get an upper spring perch from a WRX to make this suspension work. I'm on wits end. I am supposed to go to Beaver Run Friday... if I don't have it installed in time to get it aligned by Thursday then I'm screwed.

Here is what I have (don't worry, I didn't pay that much....)

So if anyone has the necessary parts laying around from a WRX and wants to overnight it to me... let me know. I'm going to call around junk yards tomorrow to see what I can find. Will newer Legacy/Forester/RS top hats work? Thanks for any help.
