Default RS4 IC install (Achtuning hose kit)... No brackets and IC's have shaved tabs

Anyone ever conquered this project?

Any suggestions on how to install without the brackets. I would use brackets but they are useless as my tabs were "shaved" off.

Some people are probably wondering why, and that I am unsure of. I purchased a year ago and was unaware that the tabs were shaved until now.. which the car is completely apart.

Thanks.

Default if you are using APR hose kit...they are stiff enough to hold them in place.....that and your

bumper support will keep it braced.

Remove the stock S brackets and there shouldn't be a problem if you have the APR hose kit. Mine work
