Just got my VL engine mounts for my g16b conversion

I'm just wondering how to fit them because there is a small raised up nipple sort of thing on the engine side of the mounts I got. The nipple doesn't line up with the hole on the metal brackets on the engine.
Should I drill a new hole in the bracket for the nipple to fit in.... Or should I just cut it off and not worry about it?

correct, fit the driver's first & you may need to leaver the passenger side a lil bit to get it to line up..

It was only the passenger side that was breaking, I bought two mounts, done the passenger side, and, I er, still have the other on me shelf.

I may get around to it, looks like a prick of a job but.

So im a bit lazy.
