How do you install this with those screws and the piece of metal?? I put it in, but it came off in one sec. Frustrated here. Please help

I did not install it - a friend of mine did. But he said it installed perfectly by precisely following the instructions. He also said the enclosed hardware worked without any problems. Sorry for no more details than that!

Make sure that at least one of the fasteners on each end is mounted to a stud.

Well the larger angled screws are for the pull out piece to anchor onto - so they go onto the opposite wall. The small headed screws need to be fastened into a wall with anchors or a stud or a wooden wall - you can't just screw them into plain plaster. There are these handy screw in anchors available at the hardware store that work great. It needs to be sturdy because it is under tension. Love my unit!

I am having the same problem! I have adjusted the screw and still no luck. I am at the point of getting rid of it and buying a new one. Very disappointing, especially considering how expensive they are. Wish I could be more help

my screw was already in the base, you have to unscrew it, attach the tail and then put the screw back in.

Hi Steve,I bought it and fixed it with the help of a mechanic. Not sure if he used the same screws or used from his collection. I apologize that I couldn't help you with.Manoje

Everything was easy xcept the seat. Help! How do you put together? I feel like there are too much hardware on a tiny screw that holds together with a but but not to me. Help! I just got this bike I cannot figure it out. There's a seat separate hardware and somehow you stick the hardware in the seat and attach the seat slider....how?????

I used the screws & mounting parts in the package. It took me about 15 minutes to install.

just got done doing it myself... took me about 40 minutes. man it is tight up in there to remove the one bolt! i do have big hands... a little FYI, it is held on by ONE 5/8" bolt on the top right side of the light. i had to do it all blind. removed the small splash guard, enough to fit my hand up to the light. and it was all by feeling from there on out. removed the old bulb first from the housing, then removed the 5/8" bolt. when i installed the new lamp, i first removed the light bulb from the housing (to make it easier to access that bolt that holds it to the cars bumper) then popped the bulb in when the bolt was tight. and connected the wires. just got done doing it myself... took me about 40 minutes. man it is tight up in there to remove the one bolt! i do have big hands... a little FYI, it is held on by ONE 5/8" bolt on the top right side of the light. i had to do it all blind. removed the small splash guard, enough to fit my hand up to the light. and it was all by feeling from there on out. removed the old bulb first from the housing, then removed the 5/8" bolt. when i installed the new lamp, i first removed the light bulb from the housing (to make it easier to access that bolt that holds it to the cars bumper) then... » Read More just got done doing it myself... took me about 40 minutes. man it is tight up in there to remove the one bolt! i do have big hands... a little FYI, it is held on by ONE 5/8" bolt on the top right side of the light. i had to do it all blind. removed the small splash guard, enough to fit my hand up to the light. and it was all by feeling from there on out. removed the old bulb first from the housing, then removed the 5/8" bolt. when i installed the new lamp, i first removed the light bulb from the housing (to make it easier to access that bolt that holds it to the cars bumper) then popped the bulb in when the bolt was tight. and connected the wires. « Show Less

I just paid attention to the directions and made sure the mounting screw lined up when I slid the grip on. It took me just two tries to get it to line up correctly. When you initially get it on, it won't look like it fits correctly. Once you tighten the screw it pulls the grip into place. I got it on in about 5 minutes.

Talk to the company. Mine popped out during installation because I didn't follow the directions like they said. But now it's in there and been fine for months.

I just finished assembling this bike less than an hour ago; so, this is still fresh in my mind. I had a bit of trouble with this as well. First, make sure everything is lined up straight and the screw holes are open. You may need to turn the screw through each of the holes (before assembling) to open them up if they are not drilled open all the way. I also found that it took a bit of "elbow grease" to get the screw to go all the way in as it is supposed to do. The first few turns of the screwdriver are difficult, then it screws in smoothly. Perhaps there is a holding material on the inside of the handlebars that you have to get through, I'm not sure. I hope this helps; good luck!

I just held them in place and screwed the screws on top with my hand. I'm sorry for being so inarticulate. I hope you figured it out. I'm a bit disappointed by the product.

Mine came off & there were 3 small pieces: 2 screws & an internal sleeve. Get the bars lined up as there is a correct twist. Once you do that, all the other parts fit, no problem.

LOL, that got me too! Actually it just screws on, but it is reverse screw (counter clockwise). Google the model and see the instructions because it is tricky to get the old one off and the new one on. I tried several times, but finally succeeded. Good luck.

Mine just slid right in. sounds like your bracket is slightly bent or something.

the intern that put it together had a bit of a problem but then she did changed the way she was inserting the screws, so try changing how you inserted the screws. i almost returned it also.

there are two different type screws. you have to get the right ones in the right places. it is spelled out in the directions.

I agree with dgminer; you have to snap it into place. It felt like I was forcing it, and then I gave it a little more elbow grease and it snapped on. You might to rotate it slowly as you try to snap it on.
