Availability of Instructions for Rodbuckle Concealed Mount Fishing Rod Tie-Down

Question:

I just received my Concealed mount rod buckle and kit from you. The instructions are not very detailed. Is there a video or YouTube available showing the concealed mount installation? All I can find is the standard installation examples. Thank you.

Unfortunately, I don't have any video footage or any information that's any more detailed than the installation instructions provided for the Boat Buckle Concealed RodBuckle Retractable Fishing Rod Tie-Down Strap.

In a nutshell, you'll use the provided template for the screw holes and the slot for the strap to pass though the gunnel of the boat. Place the strap assembly behind the slot, and feed the strap through the slot, securing it so it doesn't accidently retract. Attach the faceplate with the screws that pass though the gunnel into the strap assembly. Then, attach the buckle to the strap.
