endstop questions

Hi,
I'm a complete novice trying to finish my Wood kit build from where the UStream videos left off. Here are my endstop questions:
Question 1:
From the Reprap wiki page: "Endstops are actuated and adjusted by screws located on the cheapskate u-joint mounts."
I'm guessing that's the 2" 6-32 socket head screws. But I can't get the screw in vertical because the belt clamp is in the way. I've attached a picture. Is it supposed to be hard up against the belt clamp? Question 2:
When I route the end stop wires from the top back down to the Rambo, does that go down one of the slots on the sides of T-Slot bar (under where the bearings roll up and down)? I suppose it will stay clear of the bearings as long as the wire lays in there flat. Any tips there?
Thanks!!
Barnett
