Hi, I need a bit of help , while i was fixing an old xbox 360 (first time) I was following a tutorial, but then i noticed it was for a different type of xbox, I have a falcon and I have applied the thermal paste an such but I dont know how to apply the heatsinks back into motherboard, I was thinking using the xclamps but then I face palmed myself, I have 10mm bolts but I dont want to drill into anything and just be left with 4 big holes in a piece of green plastic.
