It was easy to hold it at the desired angle where I wanted it but I was sure to get the alignment right as I put it in. I took the metal mounting flanges off the sight and just hot-glued the sight to the scope right-side-down. You have to desolder a wire, cut a little glue and straighten a little bent metal on the switch to get it out.I used a 'higher tech' approach to mount it on the scope than some other product reviewers as I couldn't figure out a way to get rubber bands to work. Moving the switch was also no big deal if you don't mind cutting a new switch hole (I used a dremel tool with a twist drill bit and cleaned it up with an exacto). Disassembly is straight forward (see picture) as is reassembly of the windage adjustment 'on the other side'. I moved the switch and the 'windage' adjustment from the right side to the left side of the sight. Upon getting it home I determined that to mount it in the appropriate location (see picture) I would have to make some minor modifications to it. It has a significantly larger window than the daisy. The previously reviewed Daisy finder was on sale for $10 dollars but, for an item such as this, I figured 'why go cheap' and spent $13 instead on a crossman 'wide angle' sight.
