Help! With A/C Mount!
Like the Title Says Help! Basically, here is the problem, I have a B16A2 in a 2000 Civic DX hatch, I kept my stock compressor and "rigged" it up to fit the stock Si bracket using 2 bolts on 1 side of the compressor, well they broke on sunday. So now I have a Delsol Bracket like I should have had to begin with, but now 2 of the bolts that I ordered so that I could attach the compressor to the bracket are too short.
Basically the top 2 bolts are the same part # as the bottom 2 bolts for the delsol bracket, (hondaautomotiveparts.com only shows 1 part # for the delsol when it comes to these bolts) what I need to know is did I goof up by buying 4 of the same bolt or do I need to use the top bolts from a single?
Any help would be greatly apreaciated. Hopefully that is clear enough for you guys to understand....let me know if it is not.

Re: Help! With A/C Mount! (CiRcUiTsi)
That is the only thing that I could come up with, but I ordered the bolts for a Delsol Vtec which as we all know is the B16, so I am really confused and frustrated at the same time.... But thanks for the response anyone else?

Re: Help! With A/C Mount! (turbocivic4)
Ok well just for reference for those that may not know, here is the deal i figured out the problem.
On My B16A2 I have to use a del sol A/C bracket so that I can use my stock DX Air compressor. the bottom 2 bolts that hold the compressor to the mount need to be the Del Sol bolts, but the top 2 bolts need to be longer for some reason, so I looked around at the different motors and to make the compressor bolt up completely you need to use SOHC bolts from the same mount for the top 2.
Footnotes: Bought 4 Del sol bolt to mount the compressor. 2 bolt were too short (del sol bolts). Compressor worked with the botttom 2 bolts from the del sol and the top 2 bolts from a SOHC.

Use your old civic bolt. I had both Integra and Civic, only Civic were long enough.
