    So I got some new injectors from Deatschwerks a few months ago and finally got around to putting them in. Well, I ran into some problems. Below is a pic of them side by side...

    :ugh: Notice the difference in length. Well, when I went to put them in, it only went this far...

    :( I didn't feel it "pop" in, and it basically fell out when I went to pull it out. I looked around the opening to make sure I hadn't dropped something in there like an idiot. then I noticed this...

    :mad: It's a crappy little tab thing on both sides of the injector (180 degrees from each other). These tabs aren't on the stockers so I immediatly went to Deatschwerks' website to make sure I hadn't F***ed up royaly and ordered the wrong ones. I have the right ones according to the website....they even say, and I quote, "100% drop-in fitment - plug and play with no adaptors"...

    Well....any ideas. I plan on calling them tomorrow if no one here can come up with anything. Thanks ahead of time for lookin everyone.
