Once again, I received the wrong bracket part. Right and Left are defined (at least in the USA) as if one is sitting in the aircraft. I have requested the right (passenger side) several times now and I just received another LEFT. So, fed up, I decide to modify the part into a RIGHT (passenger). So digging onto the metal shop brain and consulting an IA, the process is this, Carbonize the Aluminum part, this establishes a heat point for softening the metal. Next, using a metal brake, reshape the part 180 degrees and the hammer into the proper shape.
