Step 2

Keep in mind that the red dot should be on the left side of the face. A small hole on the right side keeps the external ring centered on the lens release button. A similar hole on the left side keeps the internal ring centered underneath.
The three short depressed sections of the internal ring should be facing into the camera during reassembly.
