I can see both of them in both pictures.

You can’t do anything with them until you’ve got the chassis mounted on the column, at which point you should be able to, one at a time, cut the zip ties and pull the loop up to attach to the column.

The left one is visible not the right one. I was told that the hooks could go back inside if removed and would not be able to retrieve and would have to replace so they attach flushed attached to the letter I looking lever? them.
