I too would like to know what to do about the rails.  I can't figure out
where they go.  I have the shock mounts installed on the bottom of the
cabinet, and the unit is just sitting on the flat sides of the 4 shocks
now.  On the mounting rail that came with the cabinet, the holes don't
line up with anything I can see.  

Also, the front panel holes don't center with the holes on the radio
front panel on the left side, they seemed to be about 1/32 inch too low
on the left side (either that or the radio is warped).  I had to pound
on the inside rail and do some sanding/filing to bring it down.  Any
ideas?
