The integrity of the system depends on a good frictional fit between the PVC tube that surrounds the bolt, and the body of the stay. You may be lucky, but it may be necessary to carefully but forcefully squeeze the sides together to achieve the appropriate degree of "stiction" (there are other threads on this on TM).
