FWIW, it's a great combo. But, GC had little experience working with the KW V3 version 1 strut bodies, and did not have necessary measurements to provide correct bushings (plate adapters). They worked until they made them fit, but it took a few back-and-forths. So, while a great combo, I don't think it's a common one.

That's crazy. I was under the impression that the KW's matched all the stock strut dimensions since lots of people run them with Group-N top mounts... and GC should know all those dimensions. I guess not.
