Thank you both for your prompt responses. :thumbup
The schematic is useful. Although a little confusing as it doesn't appear to show all parts I've detailed above?
The screw spacers infact drop through the (larger) holes in the thick rubber pad until they hit the lower screw bracket (positioned under the frame).
Then with everything sandwiched together, the top tank bracket screws down, it gets as far as the metal spacers it touches and wont screw any further (to make it tight).
I've screwed the 2 bolts all the way through the bottom screw bracket (off the bike), so its not as if there's a problem with them screwing onto these threads... something else I considered.
