11. Take your new heater hoses, and on the bracket, there is a little tab sticking out. Bend that down flush with the rest of the bracket.

I recommend going under the car once the hoses are in place. There is a locating hole for the tab but no hole for a screw. With a very compact close quarter 90 degree drill you can drill a hole for a self tapping bolt and secure the bracket. I was not comfortable leaving the hoses unsecured.
