I've got a Forrester pocket to fit, what do you need to do to make it fit?

Andy.

Thats the job Chiark...you have to drill extra holes in the side brackets....Drill a 5.5mm hole aprox 10-12mm down from the lowest hole in the bracke....make sure that it is in line verticaly and it goes sweet....

Do you use self tapping screws? Do the screws/holes go through to the inside of the pocket?

Andy.

Na just used the lugs on the pocket inserted into newly drilled holes and used original screws to locate head unit in place...no movement of pocket..I expect Newton has a law explaining why...but I say it was luck...
Best of luck Andy
