The initial seats produced from early to mid-2014 lacked
fixed press-fit threaded bolts installed in the rivet plate beneath the
seating surface. Additionally, the arrangement of the spacer sleeves
differed. Consequently, the hinges are only compatible with the new
rivet plate featuring press-fit threaded bolts. It's advisable to confirm
the type of seat or version before proceeding.

Instruction: Remove the buffers, bolts and the cover plate
Then, verify if the spacer sleeves can be loosened to reveal a press-fit
threaded bolt underneath (versions 2.0 and 3.0). V1.0 is equipped
with standard M6 bolts.
With version 1.0, large washers are still installed underneath the spacer sleeves.
