Hello guys, just got in my Croco Strap and folding clasp deployant. As expected it came one end unattached to the clasp. What is the best way to attach it without damaging anything ? I was thinking pliers but seems to be tough without scuffing the edges of it. Thanks.

I think I figured It would. I had to go up and under. Do these things come in different sizes ? This one BARELY fits.

No tools needed - just friction fit!

There are regular, long and short straps.

You have to first 'feed' it THROUGH the part that looks like a huge eye of a needle.
Sorry, I can't think of any better way to describe it.

In your pic above, you seem to have only done half the job & fed it through the holders. First you need the feed it through the clasp itself, then through the holders. Have another look and (hopefully) you'll see what I mean.

See if this helps;
