Question N55 Exhaust rattle - how to install part

Hi all,

Recently my M2 started making a major rattling noise, especially on start up and slower speeds.
I've found the problem, being that part 18307620323 is totally missing.
I've ordered this part from my local BMW dealer, but I can't seem to install it again properly.

Can anyone take a picture of how theirs is installed on their exhaust?

I've found multiple videos of this (from M140s and other BMWs) and followed the necessary steps (unbolting the 3 bolts etc.) but somehow it doesn't seem to fit in properly when assembling it again with the little spring in it.

If I see an example of how it should be, I would be a bit more confident putting a little bit more pressure on it.

Thanks a lot!

I haven't had the stock exhaust on my car in awhile now, but you may have to twist the bow slightly to get both ends to fit in their slots.
