Defi Gauge cups

I bought some new Defi gauges, and mounted them using the provided cups. And no matter how hard i look, i can only find people with the same problem as me, but no solution.

The bolt used to tighten the cups in place (rather then bouncing back and forth with the gear shifts) goes in a hole so small you can't actually tighten it with anything. like such:



Surely somebody knows how to do this from past experience. As i can't find anything to save my own life.

After a week of not being able to figure it out, i finally posted for help. Less then an hour later it came to me...

You have to put the bolt in the round end, nut in the hexagon end. Then use an Allen key to tighten the bolt through the nut. I feel very stupid..
