    Order one of these retention kits then as well while you are at it so you can convert it over later...

    One other comment, you will notice that I didn't use the mounting hardware as intended... the proper way is to use springs between the plate and thumb nuts... I didn't bother with that... doing a hard mount. I used the plastic sleeve spring limiters upside down through the holes to better keep the threaded shafts upright instead of coming out an angle. There is enough give in the mounting plate to ensure you don't snap anything as long as you tighten it gently and not too much. Lots of previous hook and loop users have tightened too much and broke loops before so don't do that. Tweak it like I did while running the board to get the best temps being careful not to overtighten.
