Hello!
I just received my RPi B+ and the Pibow Coupé - Enclosure for Raspberry Pi Model B+ Computers[ID:2083].
It seems the white plastic bolts are not long enough to allow the white plastic nuts to thread. They seem to be about a couple mm too short.
Anyone else experience this? Maybe I got the wrong type of bolts...
Thanks!
RPi B+ & Pibow Coupé - short bolts?

You're sure everything is stacked together tightly? Can you maybe post a picture or two?

Did you remove the protective paper from the PiBow pieces?

Aha! No, I did not. I'm working tonight, so I'll try that in the morning and report back here. Thank you very much for you're quick reply.
Update: After removing the film from the pieces, the bolts fit perfectly. My bad. Thank you!
