OK I must be an idiot
WHY won't this work for me?
When I re-use the factory screws on the inside, the top inside one (factory) is not long enough to go in the hole!!!

Tried for 1 hour and failed!
WHTF?
Did they change anything for 2011?

Just installed them on my 2011 and Quadratec sent me all new screws. Longer for the outside and shorter for the inside. I reused nothing.

You got the outsides, why don't you CAREFULLY try to reuse one of the longer stock outsides that you wont be using?
I got all 4 new with mine.

I put mine on last week...

Came with 4 screws for each side, both sets individually packaged in the box. (also orderd from Quadratec)

Each package contained 2 long screws for the outside, 2 shorter screws for the inside. and the spacers.

Good luck!
