Any recommendations on making my SpinQ Thermaltake install easier??

I've been using this cooler for about 2 years now and it's gotten to the point where the snap-in bolt pin things barely work. I use the diagonal method outside the case to snap them in but they're simply too worn out to snap in place anymore and I don't want to take the risk of installing it half-way and having a big ass cooler flap around and shred things inside my computer tower.

I'm looking at possibly buying this:

But I'm not sure if this will work. Any recommendations as to how to remedy this problem?

I have an 1155 motherboard if that helps. Thanks

P.S.: Fixed the link
 
The 1156 bolt-thru kit should work on the 1155. And this method of securing the heatsink is better than the snap-in method. Tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern, in small incremental steps. Check torque requirements and do not over tighten.
