Wow you guys must have all had an easier time installing yours than I did. I was going to suggest the following:
A gallon of Hydrogen Peroxide and 43 band-aids.
Magic Pixie Dust to get the parts to actually align properly.
$40.00 in quarters for the swear jar.
I've heard many people say the same so I don't think you're alone. Had mine installed at LAPD so the money I saved on the Band-Adis, Peroxide, and the swear jar (oh and the magic pixie dust), went into their cash register .
