I have a Modern Driveline crossmember for my T5 conversion. It looks like a nice piece. When I tried to test fit it, I couldn't get both bolts in together. I tried putting one bolt in either side, but could not get the other in. I did notice that only the driver side bolt hole is slotted. Is the passenger side bolt hole supposed to be slotted as well? It looks like maybe it is off a hair or maybe my car is. Has anyone else encountered this?

You might try putting just the bolts in. Then using pipe clamp or ratcheting strap on the bolts to suck them together. Just go slow and easy.
