yeah i ended gettin it after numerous hours wasted....but then some how the hole to hold the metal painted piece that goes on top of the housing broke off....ugh so its all off right now and theres a hole where it all should be

how is the flat metal piece held on? cuz there were 4 bolt spots but when i got the 2 front in the back wouldnt match up
