Great quality seat/terrible installation instructions

I just bought this seat back to replace a broken seat in my old perception which luckily used the same type of seating system. The seat sits higher than my original one and I was looking for something firmer to offer better lumbar support, which it does. The question is only in the installation instructions. Everything went smoothly until I got to steps 12-14. I went online but unfortunately there is no video. Eventually I figured it out and wanted to share it in case it helps someone else. So when you get to step 12, pull the bungee with the loop all the way up, up from the bottom of the seat, making sure the straps are up. The trick then is you thread that elastic through the u-slot in the seat and then I grabbed a screwdriver to hold the elastic in that u-slot on the back so it stays in place. You can then insert any whole seat into this slot and insert the strap and hook the bungee along with it. I then used a screwdriver to secure the bungee in that u-slot and once it's in the seat bounces up and down. The instructions showed something completely different for this step, which left me guessing. Hope that helps!
