Has anyone installed one of those hoot strut kits on a 2021?

Breakthrough!
I finally realized the metallic “cone” must be COMPLETELY inserted into the fender hole.
Narrow part of cone pointed down, threaded ball stud pointed up.
The cone/stud must be threaded so the cone is just a turn or two onto the threads.
But not so lose that you risk losing the cone into “no mans land.”
Now you GENTLY lift up on the ball stud, so that the cone “grabs” the underside of the fender hole while you gently tighten, first by hand. Then once set, torquing with 13mm deep well.
I feel the printed instructions could have been better detailed, but got ‘er done! 🤗
