    There should be a bracket on the floor and another on the cover that they pin into.

    The bracket with the slide goes on the bottom, starboard side just outside the engine partition. Mounted toward the front of the partition. The top mounts aft of that point on the bottom of the cover. On the other side(port) is a hydro ram mounted to the cover and to the side.

    The bottom one has a sort of sliding mechanism on it so you can lift the cover a few inches incase the battery dies.

    The one that mounts on the floor on mine is much taller with the aforementioned sliding mechanism.
