91 Legacy top hat upgrade and fitment

Swapping in 05 sti struts and sti pinks into my 94, need to source some 91 tops hats, are there other late model subarus that have the same design and fitment as the 91 top hats, looking for pillowball mounts that might work, would the whiteline 'com' c work?
- can i use the perch from the 05 sti tophats? from what I have read no.

thanks

I am unaware of any other Subaru that has similar rear top hats as the the 90-91 Legacy.

As you've found, any of the newer ones may be close, but require some modification to get them to fit.

what about the front? if i use shocks and struts from a 96 legacy with sti pinks and the sti tophats would this fit?

The front top hats and mounts should work fine.

I was going to say the 05 STI strut wont work, the rears will but not the fronts.
