8 holes, 4 on pipe, 2 on each bracket, 4 bolts for the pipe, u only use 1 bracket, one end attaches the the pipe ruling out one of the holes and the other end bolts to chassis meaning all 5 bolts used and no holes left

Ahhhhhh! I was trying to work out how that one bracket worked

I should look more closely, I thought those two brackets were actually just one

There are multiple holes because it's a 'universal' filter. They accept different diameter pipes and allow for restricted access.

You only use (IIRC) 4 on the prelude install. Same bolt/hole secures the pipe and the bracket in one

EDIT:
And there are 2 brackets. Here's one I made earlier (after it had an adventure starting whilst covered by a plastic bag

NOT mine or Lisa's doing, I must add!)
