Default Cup Holder Installation

This is going to be the most dumb question I will ever ask...

I just got a set of cup holders like this Land Rover Cup Holders (Genuine Part # STC53156SUC)
from ebay for super cheap. They are in excellent, if not pretty much new, with the screws, etc..

Now for the dumb question.. Are there instructions for installing? I know.. dumb.. was really just asking since they have a small plastic pin that has to go into a hole in the ridge of the center console and wondered if there was some kind of template.

Funny.. I'm tearing the engine down and rebuilding it, and need instructions to install the cup holders...

Step 1.) Remove black top from cup holder.
Step 2.) Position Bottom of cup holder over console
Step 3.) Screw center screw into top ridge of console
Step 4.) Screw side screw into side of console

You may also want to drill a pilot hole to help get it lined up more accurately and screw in by regular screwdirver if you choose. You can do it just using a battery powered drill/driver with no pilot hole, but be careful not to chew up the screw heads

Thanks, I kinda figured that, but what about that little plastic pin on the underside of the holder?

That is just to line up the rubber pad on the underside of the cup holder. No drilling for that part, just the two screw holes.
