This is how I have tried to work around the problem with the instructions.

 

 

The starboard side had been glued the day before.

Then came the port side which did not fit perfectly but I glued it anyway.

In my haste I forgot to paint the seat on the starboard side and add part E24 with the decal.

Later in the day I checked on how the glue was holding up and I was expecting the worst.

I was right!
