Default i lack where the EM1/ctr strut attaches?

with the EM1/CTR/Mugen front strut bar it attaches above the strut. On my 97 hatch the holes are there but filled in and painted over? its all OEM paint whats the deal? how can use them?

for some reason the "EG" come with rubber washers that you pull out my brother has them.

but on my car "EK" there isnt and it looks like you need to drill them out.

how did you drill yours out?

Lay the bar on the spot were it should be take a marker and mark it. Make sure its on the right spot then take an automatic center punch or a punch and a hammer and make an indentation were your gonna drill, take a smaller drill bit and drill a pilot hole then take a bigger drill bit and drill it out to the bolt size. I think it was 8mm, take a long bolt a washer for the bottom side and a washer for the upper side and a nut bolt everything on and your good to go.
