all you need to do is use artic alumina two part epoxy to glue it on. use a very little amount. make sure that it is in the very center. feel free to ask questions.

i slide mine around in little circles to spread the arctic alumina or silver epoxy thin as possible.. the thinner the better the heat conduction but you need enough to stick as well.
