    So I completed the 2000+ ABS conversion this weekend, and only had two screws leftover! LOL :-) But those two screws are the ones that are supposed to hold the brackets that are the subject of this thread. When I bent the brackets to remove the bushing and old hard lines, I guess it bent the backside of the bracket so badly that it was no longer flat, and was more like an S shape pitched forward, which means when I tried to reinstall the bracket and bend it back over the bushing, I could not get the holes to line up, as the top half was too far forward. And then I couldn't access the bottom hole to at least screw that into place (although I realize now I should have bent the top half back up, screwed in the bottom half, then bent the top half back into semi-place, oops. But I ran the harness in front of those brake lines, and then the blower is holding everything in place, so hopefully all will be OK. Mita should definitely include two replacement brackets in their kit, I'm going to order them from Amayama but will have to take apart the entire frunk again in order to access those brackets. :-( I've already warned my RHD friends here in the U.S. that are about to start their ABS conversion.
