Question re mounting hardware for DHX 5.0

Hi,
I've just aquired a 2012 DHX 5.0 Air for use with my 08 Yeti 575. As expected it has come with the wrong mounting hardware to fit my bike, so i was thinking of taking it into my LBS to have the correct ones fitted. Thing is, i've noticed that the shock i have on there currently (RP23) uses the two piece reducers, whereas the DHX 5.0 uses what they call the 5 piece flanged bushing hardware.
Is there any reason why this should cause a problem? Or does it not matter so long as the width and hole size ('snigger') I end up with are correct for my frame?
Thanks in advance guys
Jamie

as Fox use the same shock mounts just swap them over,
the DHX and the RP23 may use different configurations in different frames."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
