You need the XTR matchmakers with the i-spec shifters. The XTR ones have a sliding slot. XT ones have the 3 holes in them See this web page [url= http://www.hopetech.com/webtop/modules/_repository/documents/SHIMANOshiftermounts-Issue2a.pdf ]http://www.hopetech.com/webtop/modules/_repository/documents/SHIMANOshiftermounts-Issue2a.pdf[/url]

I did the same, and once I'd got the correct ones was quite surprised that Hope have failed (a bit) with these.

The Shimano XTR shifters have the main bolt plus a secondary locating pin. The Hope ones just have the bolt and while this doesn't seem to impact the RH shifter the LH one comes loose and in the end I just have it sat 'pushed-up'.
