to-side. Mark the position of the screw holes and drill the
elevator using a 5/64" [2mm] drill. Note: Be careful when
you position the horn! Align it side-to-side so that you won’t
interfere with the elevator joiner wire when you drill through
the elevator.

two 2mm x 10mm machine screws and the nylon control
horn backplate.
