Hey @Ernie888! To ensure I’m understanding correctly, you are wanting to get the mounting bracket piece securely attached to the Cam assembly where the ball socket snaps into place? If so, you are doing it correctly! Feel free to apply a little bit of pressure and test to ensure it is securely in place.
Check out our help center article on Spotlight Cam Battery installation, which contains some great tips on mounting this device. I hope this helps!
