when you say sealing tape you mean like 3M double sided tape? SHould I put it around the holes of the bolt or around the whole base of the wing? Also did you have to buy any hardware or gaskets from Mitsubishi?

Are there indents for two holes per side or just one?

I used some 3M double sided tape, it works great. I put it around the edges of the base on both sides. I purchased nothing from Mitsu. I had the correct fitting hardware in my garage.

There is only 1 indentation per side, as only 1 hole needs to be drilled per side.
