    You didn't buy new bolts for the project? Shame on you. Did you try Home Depot? They have alot of metric bolts.

    you are not alone. I was doing the same thing and mine snapped in half. I just went to ace hardware and got one that fits.

    oh yeah...an install that should take like a half hour...just can't whenever I do it. I'm trying to use the OEM brackets, since I didn't get the stout mount system, and it's just not working. The bushings are too fat for the OEM bracket. WTF?!? My brackets have little tabs on the outside that make it virtually impossible to install correctly. I'm pissed!!!

    Had you bought the mounts, you'd be swearing at the evaporative emissions canister right now.

    Passenger-side mounts ****ing SUCK.
