'91 Sedan: rear bottom seat cushion bracket question

[wtfisafleek]

Dear Accord Hive Mind,

I'm about to reinstall my rear seat cushion bottom and I've noticed the center bracket isn't quite lining up. It's got a little kink in it, and I can't tell if it was originally like that or somehow I bent it with all the handling I've done with it while reupholstering. Maybe it's supposed to be oriented downward?

Am I missing a spacer of some sort? I don't see one in the diagram, but I do see the bracket flipped into the up position.

I did check and the cushion appears to be down and fully seated (hehe).

I haven't seen any pics of how it's attached and I removed it too fast when I took the seat out.

Here's my cushion/bracket:

No spacer in any one I'v ever taken out. It is usually bent up so that it sits flat against the floor at the hole; you'll have to lean on the seat some. Double check the front hooks.
