BHR Ignition coil question

Hey guys! Today while the weather is warm in ohio i installed my AFE short shifter and now I am about to install my BHR ignition coils! As I was reading instructions online I see that u need spacers for the OEM bracket before installing the new BHR coils. It says they were included in the box but I didnt have any in mine. I have a 2007 rx8 are the spacers for a different year? or did i need to order them seperate?

Also can i get a link to a good install guide? the few I looked at didnt have many pics.

The spacers should have been zipped tied to the spark plug wires.

thanks for the quick reply yesterday, I realized I'm an idiot and didnt see the spacers zip tied lol. I got the bhr ignition in after about 2 to 3 hours of work and banged up hands.. I don't know how everyone got all the bolts connected to the new board it was a hell of a time for me and I have long skinny hands. Also I had a hell of a time just connecting the wiring harnesses back to the new kit. I'm just happy my baby turned on and is running strong with my new short shifter and ignition!

It took me about an hour and a half to get my BHR kit installed with new plugs, but that was with the car on a lift and a very skilled second set of hands. I agree about getting all four nuts tight though, those middle two were a pain. I used a long magnet to get the nut closest to the firewall started on the stud, then it was just a straight shot with a long socket extension to snug it down.
