Default ETC TMIC question

Hey guys, just got my ETS top mount intercooler and everything seems simple to install, just one question to those who have had this, do you guys re-use the rubber grommets that go on the three bolts that attack to the engine? When i put the grommets in the ETS one the bushing doesnt really fit in and the design of the bracket itself is a open circle instead of a closed circle like the OEM TMIC so im assuming we just use the bolts and bushings and no rubber grommets correct? (Probably a stupid question but i'm new to all this so be gentle on me haha)

appreciate it!

I have a CP-e TMIC hard mounted to the intake/brackets.
Even though the grommets work fine with it. However, the added vibes on the TMIC is working the bolts loose that hold the mounting tabs onto the intercooler. Time to throw on some blue stuff.

I have an ETS and had no issues using the rubber grommets in the mounting tabs. They're there for a reason. Use them.

^ This. I also have the ETS and reused mine. I guess over time they get worn/loose but they are necessary for some vibration isolation. I would also use some locktite on the tabs that attach to the intercooler.

Thanks for the replies, i figured you had to re-use them, didnt seem right to have metal bolted down to metal for the intercooler and thankfully i got some new grommets and everything snug'd up super nice!
