I've looked at your photos, and everything looks just like it is supposed to. Just slip the new tensioner roller on the shaft with the spring (that you took off with the old roller), compress the spring like you did to get the old tensioner off, and put the assembly, with the new roller, on where the old one came off. Make sure that the roller is tapped, gently, back so that it is not sticking out (toward the front of the car), make sure the belt aligns with the roller, release the spring, then put the nut back on and tighten it. That is all there is to it. It is a very simple job.
