Bag says to place in 4 corners and click the gasket to them. Then install pan and when left with only 4 corners unscrew and place correct bolt in place

I am still in the process of this one. I didn't even attempt trying to get the cat and muffler apart i just used the sawzzall and will use a good union for the exhaust. i didn't want to drop my rainbow shaped shovel and not have it go back up once it sprang free.

Home stretch now. Have the pan installed that went fairly straight forward. Took SMike advice and just past hand tight. Need to get the exhaust taken care of Saturday.

That's a great option on the exhaust. I used thread to tie the gasket in place,you can also you tac spray.
