10 minutes for the retrofit. The design is a bit finicky as is stated in the video, but it works well once in place and has settled. Thanks Simon!

installed off of videos. the little lip at the back catches the tray. i made sure that the inside shell was in the correct position as simon mentioned it kept the frame away to prevent this binding action.

too, i believe the white piece is the component that keeps it closed.

i can trim the lip if needed… but it still wont stay closed. any thoughts?
