Default Need c4 upper control arm washers.

Hello, I am rebuilding the front control arms for a C4 and wanted to know if anyone makes the washers that go on either side of the control arm bushings. The originals were flimsy aluminum and I ruined all four on one side getting the old bushings out. I am using urethane bushings from Prothane and they tell me to use the old washers over again. I've checked with other urethane bushing manufacturers and they say the same thing. Does anyone here know where I can get replacments in either aluminum or steel. Thanks, Al.
