Camber adjustment

Camber adjustment
I had an alignment done after fitting new tires and the camber is out of spec. I had previously replaced the upper wishbone bushing with all new shims from SNG Barrett and used the diagram found on the forum to place the shims in the correct position.
According to the tech the spec for left camber is -1.18° min and -0.18° max and mine is -1.33°. Right is -1.30° min and 0.30°, mine is -1.64°. The tech asked me to reduce each side by -0.5°
Which shims do I remove to achieve this?

The only way to gain more positive camber is to increase the front ride height by either new springs or new upper shock mounts. Upper shock mounts make the most since as they wear and drop the front end. ... and before anyone suggests the eccentric bolts, they are a joke. the eccentric is a bout a 1/16th of an inch, and might change camber a quarter degree. gordo
