AI HON-K809 mounting kit install issues, need help
Car: 2001 Honda Civic ex
I have installed a couple stereos but haven't used a mounting kit. I have the American International HON-K809, and I have read through a bunch of posts here on installs of the other one that allows the factory pocket, but I had a tape player so I like this kit. Anyways the problem is that the instructions just say:
"3) Sandwich ISO mounting brackets between back of dash panel & steel support using existing screws."
This is not descriptive enough and I don't know where to mount the 4 plastic pieces that come with the kit. If anyone can draw a diagram or describe better how to install the brackets, that would help me a lot. *** FYI: I lost the thin metal sleeve that comes with most stereos that would make this install much easier***
Thanks for your time in helping me fix this.

Well being a complete noob, I cut off the entire back post instead of just the guide, so I super glued it and put an extra long screw in to secure it, and after that it made sense on how to install, sorry to waste your time.
