Default 1987 Mustang BBK CAI engine Compartment kit

I recently purchased a BBK CAI kit for the engine compatment and I have some extra parts left over. I bought it from LRS and it came with the 86-88 adapter. I put the whole assembly on but I have a black powdercoated bracket left overhttp://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...e/BBK-1558.JPG and the metal bracket from the engine compartment kit. I'm curious as to where these go or if I even need them and where I should put them. This is my first CAI and the directions are pretty sub-par. Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. This is just my daily driver, that's why i did'nt go with the fenderwell kit.

That's the thing, it doesn't move around much. All of the clamps are tight, but it wiggles up and down.

That's all that bracket is, is to keep the tubing from bouncing up and down so much. If you can find a way to make it work, then cool. If not, and the clamps are tight, don't worry about it.
