Updated Seat Suspension 140-160

My 68 144 seat suspension was missing on drivers side. I ordered the newer mesh setup from GCP along with the set of 12 springs. I installed it but ran into an issue. The mesh is U shaped on the edge with piano wire in between. One side of the mesh setup is open. Hence the U shape. The back set of springs are sliding off the at the tip of the U. Don't sure why the mesh setup isn't a complete circle with the piano wire in between. Maybe I'm trying to install it incorrectly. I sent a picture of the mesh setup to Eric from on this forum to review. Wonder if others have installed this setup and how it is done. I made a U below. The end springs are coming off each side of the tip of the U.
