Hi Bill.
The first seat took me a couple of hours using several different sometimes
painful methods. The second seat took about 20 minutes. Here's how I did the
second seat:
1. Put the seat upside down on my workbench.
2. Put the front hooks in place.
3. Pulled on the thick rubber next to the hooks with vise grips to pull the
rear hooks into place.
4. Put the seat on its side on the floor.
5. Used a very large flat bladed screwdriver to push down on the hooks
nearest the floor and slip them into place. Takes a bit of fiddling.
6. Turned the seat on its other side and repeated step 5.
Hope this helps.
Hugh
