Default Mounting indoor unit

Had a little problem with the mounting rack. It was a lot smaller than expected.
Once I lined up with the existing Line-Set hole, there was only one stud under the rack.
It was in the center. The main support for the IDU are the tabs on each end of the rack.
So, I had to add extensions on both ends of the rack..
The add-on sheet metal is mounted into studs and attached to the rack.
So the rack should never bend forward or slide downwards.

Other bugs:
The labeling of the wiring terminals in the IDU is different than the manual.
The manual is missing steps numbers 1 to 6 of the Vacuum Procedure.
I found the missing steps in the on-line install manual (PDF).

Tomorrow, we plan to get out early and run the line-set and start the pressure test.
