The Clubsports studs are long enough for reinforcement plates and an OEM strut brace, at least they were on the 2014 iteration fitted to mine.

Later ones you have to ask KW for the extended studs and then knock them out yourself, bit of a minor pain as they are in there pretty good!!

That’s annoying. Do they charge for extended studs?
