You must be one poor mofo to not afford $26 plus shipping.
Intel pins are shit easy. I didn't even look up how to do them, and when the HS arrived I was like "Oh, so I don't have to screw shit in?". What you do is put the pins in locked position. Insert firmly (What she said) looking for click. Don't force it (What she said) cuz my HS pins may be a little different, so let me know. Otherwise, leave pins alone.
You only turn them into 'Unlocked' to take it out, not put it in.
the stock intel heatsink was a bitch to install but it wasent as hard as people made it seem i bet they arent following the directions i found out i was doing it wrong because i didnt have it clock wise but after that its really easy
