GT2RS Intercooler Duct Mods?

Does anyone have the photos handy or know the missing steps? The original how-to is missing a few pieces. Pretty sure I could figure it out, but I'd like to be 100% going into it.

Here's the original post I was referencing, I've searched but can't seem to piece together what is missing...

Use silicon gasket maker on the IC to duct interface instead of the rubber weatherstripping -it'll give better clearance. Some have extended their metal straps via extra metal and rivets (or welds) instead of the zip ties.

Be sure to epoxy those end tanks!

Epoxied and pressure tested prior to install

Ronny-

I think that is right how you have it. On mine, I fit the 2 posts that are side by side (the ones which you say are broken for yours), then I fit the cage and ducts into car and figured out positioning for the best fit.

It is a very tight fit!!! But it is the post that is further inside the wheel well when the IC is mounted to the car that I connected to the cage, the other post is not connected.

Let me know if there is any way I can help you out further
