After much trial and error, I figured out a way that one person can do it rather painlessly. First, with the seat out, position the seat so you have good access to the bottom. Next, hook the grid onto the four (or five?) spings on one side of the seat. Then, secure one spring into the other side of the seat (I recall that you may be able to get the first spring or two in without any problem - it's the last couple that don't want to go). There will be space between that spring and the grid. Take a piece of thin rope or cable (if you have an old extension cord that you can throw away after, it will work pretty well). Loop the cable through the end of the spring and then through the arm of the grid where the spring attaches so that when you pull the free ends of the cable, the spring and the grid will come together (it's actually far less complicated than it sounds). Because it takes a good amount of leverage to do this, the trick is to get a good pair of thick gloves (I used ski gloves), and wrap the cord around the gloves securesly. When you pull your arms apart, the spring will pull towards the grid and eventually hook onto the grid. Although I know it sounds comical, the really funny part was my figuring out this process. Once I got the hang of it, it's pretty easy. email me if you have any questions.
