outer orbit hanging kit... help identify parts?
So I'm getting all prepped to mount up my Outer Orbit hanging kit to the ceiling. All the parts and instructions seem to be in order, except for 2 extra parts... and that always scares the crap outa me.
These two parts are not shown anywhere in the instructions, and I'm hoping someone may have an idea what they're for. The screws have flat tips, very tight threading, and are about 4" long. The 'widgets' are spring loaded (you can squeeze the to halves together), and the screws fit the hole in the middle. Anyone? thanks!

they are drywall anchors. you screw the funny butterfly looking thing on the long bolts. make a hole in your ceiling just so the folded up butterfly part with bolt attached fits through it. once through it unfolds and you can tighter the bolt
