If it runs and locks on the runners then you will also have to rotate the runners around as well as changing the seat orientation. If its locked in position then turning it around, it will then run and lock on the existing runners.

Sounds like success for you there but, just in case, this video I did should be useful for anyone with a rear conversion: https://youtu.be/nhsmbl3INkE
