Hi mate!

If there were meant to be holes drilled to accomodate the pods, you'll need to take the rear bar off and check on the inside. If there are OEM holes, they will be marked by a small circle approx 7mm in diameter, with slightly raised 'pimples' on the surface, and a larger dot exactly at the centre.

They're very hard to spot, might even be worth getting a little metho and wiping the black grime away from the area.

Cheers! Dan.

Thats annoying, I would have thought there might be some marks for the holes.

When I was working on my EK, I got a EK9 rear lip and wondered for a little while about how I was going to get the holes to be accurate enough so that the lip sits snug against the bar - then on closer inspection after a little wipe-down on the inside of a stocko-standard EK1 rear bar, I found the markers for the holes!

Cheers, D.
