My issue...they were broke. I don't see why I can't screw new ones in. If I can find the right ones...
Any ideas?

ask MRRPM he should know size or where to get them.
That is someone from this site?
I used screws that had the correct taper and length, but had a flat top Allen. Will that cause issues? It's all together now and not running right. Idling rough. Runs good. But pops in the air box. I disconnected battery and then will connect and turn it in 3 times and then let it idle for 10 minutes. Dealer said I may have to do that. I'm sure it won't work.
If the TPS was moved or removed you have to have it reset via BUDS.
May be a good idea to have the TPS reset since the throttle plate was removed

After doing the battery disconnect and on/off three times and then starting it......It idled perfect. Revved up and down fine. Seems to run as it should. I haven't ridden it yet but in the garage it seems fine. I did not think the battery disconnect thing would work but it runs night and day different now so that obviously does something.
Show your dealer some appreciation for the battery disconnect tip & give him a box of beer. It may pay off down the road with future problems.

Yeah it was a good tip but this same dealer wanted to charge me $800 for a new throttle body. When I asked them what was wrong with old they replied, "don't know, but we put a new one on and it works fine."

I'm not a fan of dealers at all and don't trust a single one, but I'd say they weren't really off base here. From a safety standpoint I can see why they're not allowed to repair something like that. And the replacement is $650, so $800 isn't really off base unfortunately. If anything, be mad at BRP for charging $650 for a throttle body. Dealers hands are somewhat tied as far as what they're allowed to do as far as repairing something like that.
