Default Seat installation issues?

I ordered a pair of seats from Witz. The quality of the seat itself is fantastic from what I can tell thus far. However, when I started to assemble the brackets and so forth; it seems as if I wont be able to use the sliders. The bar that connect the 2 is too wide.

My question is, for those who have ordered from him, did I get the wrong slider handle? Or am I just doing things wrong?



Yes I know...I am a cheap ***.

they do fit a lot of companys use that design

ok ill explain

to fit them all you do is put one side of the handle on the frame
it will sit on the 2 tabs
then use your muscles and squeeze the handle in ( pushing both ends together )
so as not to bend it but enable you to put the other side on the pins

you will find that some times you have to remove it again and straighten the ends
of the handle to get them to fit flush once in the final location

oh and make sure you have the front of the handle bend in the right direction pointed up or down to suit your app

hope this helps

Well I just got done with one seat. I actually did what you suggested and it worked just fine. I appreciate the information and response, Mr Grim.
