yes it should be there as per the diagram.
if a shop installed them id be asking questions. does the other side have all the pieces in?

Checked it out and its definitely missing, as well as the strut bearing. The diagram says that if its a coil over kit it doesn't need the spring hat, just the one that comes with the kit? Is this correct?

And, thankfully, the other side is intact... but I'm buying a set rather than replacing one (in case it happens to the others)

if yours is just a spring set up you need it. everything should be the same as that diagram except part 7, no idea what that is?
coilovers usually replace the flat cap (part 8 on that diagram) with their own, you then use 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 from the existing setup.

Wonder if the spring hat and bearing fell out when the strut snapped?

Just spoke to Robert from BKS Tuning and they definitely come with the flat cap (part 8 ).
Will just need to order the mount and bearing.

And thats definitely a question I have been wondering... whether they were in there initially at all...looking forward to going coilovers anyway, needed more lows
