So I'm 99% done. Just have to bolt up the plate and cut my lines.. my issue is... stock bolts no worky with BSH plate? Am I retarded or was I supposed to get screws with the kit because the OEM head's on the screws are WAY to big.. Am I missing something??

They in fact, do not. they are wayyy to short, like 2 threads poke out past the plate. and the head is WAY to big to sit into the countersunk holes on the BSH plate. I wish it was a lapse in motor function, or a heat stroke. But it isn't :( they no workey

Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I'll snap some pics right now and send you guys an email showing how much of the threads are sticking through the plate itself.

Can you post a pic of your plate and screws Armo?

I honestly think they may be the wrong screws. But they seemed to have an OEM tightness feel to me when I popped them.

I'll throw a pic up here too for you guys to see, one sec





Here we are, I'm also having trouble getting the 2 outlet ports to seat all the way down?? Is this normal? they are tight as holy hell, but there is like 1/8" of space left?? *you can kinda see in the last pic*
