:-P :-P :-P You have to hold your mouth right!!! :-P :-P :-P

Its like my 66 you have to hold it up at an angle and try to catch the spring in the groves on the bottom of the plate. And you have to start it sorta twisted so one side catches first. Its not fun to do and takes a bit but it will get on there. Also if you have something to stick under the spring and help it into the grooves it helps.

Just finesse it a little bit!!!
