MPA Data Card holder new style?

I just got a second hand (never used) MPA BA chassis and it came with a data card holder and a 2 round holder. The packing list says it was shipped in December of 2021.

It came with no instructions and the videos and pictures on MPA's website are not what I have.

It seems like it plugs 2 of the oblong holes, and the one plug should stick through, turn 90 degrees and clamp down, but it doesn't get tight. Just flops around. I must be doing it wrong.

Anybody know how this style is supposed to work?

I just did mine, I'm not trying to be a jerk but not sure how to get it wrong, it works like an mlok. You can hold the nut in place with a finger while you snug it down. I did remove the card holder section and tap that front lug in first.

At the risk of making myself look like a bigger idiot, does this look like right to you? Seems like there's not enough thickness on the magwell before the T-nut bottoms out.

You got the wrong two round holder and data card holder for that chassis. The mag well is slimer on that chassis.
