The correct mounting device for the Montauk and Outrage windshields is Wellnut #G-1032.
Those supplied by the plastics supplier are not correct.

i recently installed one of these new windshields on my Outrage 25, and I bought a box of 25 of these Wellnuts, the only way I could get them. They are fairly hard to obtain.

I think you need seven for the windshield installation. So since i had to buy so many, i can sell you seven for $1,00 each if interested, including shipping, a good deal. Post here if wanted.

As the size indicates, they also require a flat head #10 x 1-1/4" fine thread machine screw, with trim ring, flat washer and a small 1/4" x 1/4" white plastic bushing (in that order), with hole for the #10 screw, that fits into the 1/4" holes in the windshield (which you may have to drill yourself). The wellnut goes into the hole in the console, from the outside.

Described is the original factory installation detail.
