I just install it but I think I should of put loctite on the screw since there was no lock washers. How did you do yours?
Thanks

If you could take pictures that would be awesome...I am considering getting this and want to see how it looks installed as opposed to the BT Plate which is out of my price range.

I e-mailed the guy and he said I could put loctite if it made me feel better. He said he has a 06 and has had no problems with just cranking them down. I will try to get a pic and post it. I feel this plate is of very good quality and is black anodized and fits like a tee.

You can find the G7 on Ebay for $39.99 plus $10 shipping. What a deal!

Why not add lock washer yourself?

It's been in for a while now and have not had a problem without lock washers.
