Default Anyone install WBS Poly Radiator Mount Bushings

So I have a set of solid, square poly radiator mount bushings from WBodyStore. I intend to play with this in the near future as I prep the Monte for spring with some mods....

I have the old bushings out (and what fun that was). I've read how to put these bushings in (from 3800Performance.com and the e-mail response from WBS), but I was wondering if anyone had a link to some pics detailing this little challenge.

I've checked MCF and a Grand Prix forum, no luck on a how-to for the subject. I'm having the brackets powder coated and really don't want to mess them up by improper installation attempts.

Thanks!!

Use some lubricant, and I used a vice and just squeezed them in

I was thinking about a vice. WBS said to lube them up and use a rubber mallet to beat them in.
