Working with prefab and using the Variable Synchronizer

Greetings, I have a base prefab to which I added the Variable Synchronizer. Since the variables that I need to reference are on another component on the same object, the prefab is referencing itself to access properties on this component.

I gather that this might be due to a prefab limitation and that I need to reference the instantiated object itself.

Thanks,
Jeff
