I thought good investment as well and purchased them a while back, but haven't had a chance to install yet (insert bag on head emoji here if there was one ). Nice job!

Protection.

The top hats (at least on the early 24 models) are weak and have seen a few cases where they are broken and the shock pushes through. These are steel reinforcement plates that sit on top the top hat.
