Default HELP!!!

I have the T-REX 450 XL,I am at the part of installing my servos...well...the Hitec 65 servos fit real nicely into the servo trays but when I went to install the mounting scews..they are to small to fit into the holes of the servo as well as the servo tray..NOW WHAT?
The screws just fall through the holes..in Bob Whites video of the se model they sent these little tabs with the kit..I have none and the instructions show absolutly nothing on how to install the electronics.[:@]
Even if I had those little tabs it would be a real pain to try to fit them down in the servo tray.
Can somebody enlighten me on the deal.
Why would Hitec make the holes in the servo to big for the screws they send with the it?
I have to say though,this build has been pretty enjoyable up until this point!

There's plastic tabs that act as self tapping nuts, if you got the kit you got the tabs or should get some.

They are a PIT butt and I had to use surgical hemostats to install them and they strip easily but thats how they go together.

Morning,

You could also simply go to the local hardware and purchase some plastic weld. Fill the current holes with it, let it set till super hard then drill the holes the size you need.

Regards,
Solo.
