Default Urgent!!! Help!

Ok, Im trying to install my UMI short shifter and I did like InstallUniversity said and I took the center console out and I undid the stock shifter and when I tried to bolt the UMI one up i realized the stock bolts were to small. So, I looked where I found the shifter and found 2 black bolts that I assumed where correct, well they say size 12.9 on them and the bolt is ROUND! My saquet wrench aint round. Well, I have it looseley bolted up and the only way to do it is with it leaning hard towards the drivers side, is this right? Ugh

Leaning towards you is the right way.

It requires an allen wrench/head to install with the UMI bolts. Bring the bolt to a parts store and ask for the right wrench/allen socket
