Need help with installing new components

I've got a load of new components and I use Delphi 2. I can install
components when the .pas file is included but some components come as just
the .dcu file, I need help with installing DCU files because when I add them
in the install components bit it errors when building the pallette saying it
needs the .pas file for the component to go with the .dcu files, I'd be
greatful if anyone could e-mail me on how to use these files, cheers. Bye

Sorry - the problem is that you can't install any dcu's that were compiled
with a different version of Delphi. There is no way around this. That's why
all civilized programmers <g> include the source files with their
components.
