Inserting the ejector into the wallet frame:
Use pliers or similar tool to sligtly bend the sides of the frame to be able to press in the ejector.
Be patient otherwise is it possible to break the parts.Latching parts fixing in place:
In my case I am using both of them and they are not even glued to the frame. When the cards are inserted, they are holding the latches in place and other way around.
Although, I am recommending to glue the latches down.- In case of the tolerance issues with the latching parts, the printed parts can be replaced with a soft cloth or fabric which should be placed on the same place.
