the cable ties are to replace any bolts ya might snap while chaging em :P


i think they go on the bottom but i aint got a clue mate, infact ignore me as i'm usually wrong, actully no listen to me then do the opposite of me and then you'll be right, yeah that makes sense, hmm but if i;m right then you'll do the opposite and then you'll fit them wrong. but i'm usually wrong soooooo... hmmm err top. no bottom... no defo top or maybe....
