Install the Fluidmaster Soft Spa Bidet in Under 30 Minutes – That Fix It Guy DIY Upgrade

What happens here

Place the provided paper template over the toilet bowl holes to ensure proper alignment. This template accommodates both elongated and standard size bowls. Next, take the plastic mounting bracket and position it over the template. The Fluidmaster bidet seat uses a unique self-tightening bolt system; moisten the bolts with a little water from the disposable cup to help them slide into place more easily. Insert the bolts through the bracket and into the toilet holes. The bolts expand and tighten as you turn the screw from the top, securing the bracket firmly to the toilet. Ensure the mounting plate is aligned correctly before fully tightening.

Goal: Use the provided template to align the mounting plate, then install the special self-tightening bolts for the bidet seat.

Get that back to where we need it to go. Make sure that's all lined up. I love that they give you this little template right here. You have to remove the screw because you got to add this little bracket right here. That just sits in like so. Now you'll start tightening down. And then you can see on the bottom as you start tightening this how that goes up into place. And that's it. That's where we're looking at. That's put in. Now, we don't need this anymore. Next, we're going to come over to this toilet seat. We're going to pop the cap off this rotating 90, and we're going to
