Went and checked and I have to correct myself - Koni supplied a 19mm M14 strut nut, but OE is 19mm M12 I believe. They also use a lock washer rather than a lock nut. I preferred a lock nut, so I went with an OE 21mm M14 lock nut off an E60 xi.
I also used a some metal tubing from the hardware store to get more leverage on the allen wrench inside the strut nut socket.
