I can't put on the strap locks that came with my MIA J! What the...?

I am missing some instructions or something.

Let's see: the lock is supposed to like slip/fit in (it doesn't) then the screw is tightened? uh huh duuuhh

Are you using Dunlop or Schaller? Schaller has a threaded post that goes through the peg hole in your strap, then you have to push hard on the nut and tighten it on. Dunlops have a clip that slides on the post sideways instead of a nut.
