To install the dash brace you need an extra bolt. As I recall, there is an upper bolt on the left side, but just an empty hole on the right. The brace goes in the upper holes. There are two special made nuts that slide into the plastic of the meter dash where the two plastic pins previously installed. The nuts tend to head for points south if not secured a little before the windshield cowl in reinstalled. The holes should line up and the shelf can be mounted. The shelf braces mount to the shelf and one of the screws that attach the meter dash to the front cowling.
