Hi! Malcolm
It means that the reverse side of the anchor nut will need sinking into the
fire wall so that the bolt/screws will screw into and any excess threads of
the bolt will also disappear into the fire wall and so absorb the thickness
of the anchor nut. In other words simply turn the anchor not over then fix
it with the pop rivets. I also suggest using a dab of redux into the rivet
holes and finally "pull them down" when it has set.

The manual states that:
"A single AN3-5A bolt screws the side of the duct onto the inside of the
footwell using an MS21047 -3 anchor nut, installed in reverse into the
footwell to make it nearly flush".
Can somebody please explain 'anchor nut, installed in reverse' I've searched
the Gallery and the forums but have no idea what this means.
I appreciate that because of lack of access within the footwell the rivet
holes for the anchor nut would have to be drilled from the outside. Is this
all that is implied?
Kind Regards
Malcolm
