The kit can also include a bone cement. The kit can further include directions for using one or more of the prosthetic component, the cement applicator, and the bone cement. A method can include positioning the prosthetic component adjacent to the bone, aligning the prosthetic component relative to the bone or another prosthetic component, and applying a bone cement between the bone and the aligned prosthetic component.
