Default K member install page?

Got my PA racing k member yesterday. Does anyone have a install page on these? I think its only 10-15 bolts you need to take out but I wanted a step by step guide.. if not, ill have to do one myself lol

the PA peice looks fairly nice..

the only thing I wasnt happy with is that it wasnt strapped in the box and the motor mount ends were wearing holes in the box and sticking out So that had rubbed the powder coat off the very tips of the built in mounts.
I was hoping to get some info in the box also..all i got was the bill and something saying this is not a DOT replacement part.

Other than the shipping flaw, the welds look great. It has some welders splash around the beads, but i damn sure cant weld any better so ill live with that. Took 1 week to get the piece after the GP ended. So they had fast service!

i was happy with the price I paid and product.... wasnt happy with the k member motor mounts sticking outta the box. I have 4 holes in the box where the mount edges stuck out lol

One of my friends got the BMR unit 2 years ago and his mount ends had caps on them and everything was strapped down fairly well..

i know some poeple dont like their welds, but these looked good

i didnt have my motor in the car either

the motor pedestal didnt line up right and the holes to put my poly mounts in seemd smaller then stock. lets just say it took a pry bar and a big ******* hammer to get them in. then when putting the whole front assembly in the dowel pins didnt like up with the stock locations so i had to drill them out a bit. i did all the work myself so it took a bit longer then it would with 2 people.

i still havent figured out how im gonna mount my brake lines either.
