Using the IAG AOS Pitch Mount Bracket is straightforward. First, remove the standard mounting bracket that comes with your IAG AOS kit. Then, take the 3 - piece billet aluminum bracket provided and align it with the center firewall above the transmission pitch mount. Use the included 6mm x 12mm socket head cap screws, 10mm x 70mm flange head bolt, and 10mm serrated flange nut to secure the bracket properly. Remember, this bracket won't fit with the Process West Front Mount Intercooler (PWFMIC03B) for 2008 - 2014 STI models, so double - check your setup. For maintenance, regularly inspect the bracket for any signs of wear or loose screws. If you notice any issues, tighten the fasteners or replace the bracket if necessary. Keep the bracket clean to prevent rust and ensure its long - term performance.
