I had to use some small pointy wood type screws of a similar length to those provided. They were a little wider too get the biggest you can fit in the stock holes up the upper corners of the hU. The machine screws they provide won't work there is nothing for them to grab on to. The small wood screws will grab the side of the plastic frame. Hope this helps you.

Do you get radio reception?

Once they tighten the top of the unit is pulled back and the bottom tilts out of the dash. If I leave them half-tightened it will sit flush but vibrate back up to the tilt position while driving. I think the next step is finding longer screws and putting some washers in to stop the top from pulling so far back.
