brett - first congrats on the new boots, they are definitely super sick. the response and control is incredible!
anyways, the two inner screw holes in the system bindings are specially designed for mounting to strata track boards (slider mounting rails instead of traditional threaded inserts) which is available only on 2010/2011 Nova core Marek and Murry boards. If your marek is an 09, or a bio3 core 10/11 and has traditional inserts, then you are correct by only using the outer mounting holes. no need to bother with the inner holes, you are good to go out and shred!
As far as heat molding the boots, they use an Ultralon liner, which is different than Intution that other companys use. this means it is not necessary to use the intuition "cooker" that some pro shops have. a simple hair-dryer used on "high" for 1.5-2 minutes, put em on, lace em up, let them cool for about 4-5 minutes and you are good to go.
hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions
