shouldn't be, but there are two different styles. Halcyon uses a flat back and domed front for mounting the MC Pack and other backplate manufacturers use them as well. The other style is the one with O-rings on it that is used with most sidemount rigs.

No need to put the sex bolts in the other holes other than aesthetics, they aren't really functional even on the ones that are in there now.

little language barrier going on, but the backplate and the wing should have the same amount of grommets. The grommets are there to allow doubles and a single tank adapter to be mounted to the rig. Without the bolts and hardware through the plates, the sex bolts are used to keep the two layers from separating. Only need the two, no need for four
