When fitting mine, i found you do need 2 pairs of hands as you have to get both sides in place at the same time! Ask Fro-dizzle, took both of us to do his last Sunday! Hope it all goes well fella

Alot easier with two people think it took us about 5 minutes. You probably could do it by your self but would need two hands unless your a jedi!
