Anyone have a pic of a AF confirmation chip on a Rokinon 85mm 1.4?

Hi, bought the euro dandelion chip off ebay and its been hard to find detailed directions for install on the samyang/rokinon 85mm 1.4. Seems pretty straightforward, but it's not giving me F-stop when I mounted it meaning it wasn't working. So I took it off, and am trying to see if it mounts on the top of the ridge or inside the ridge.
Thx

Make sure that you place a shim under the chip or it will sit too low and not make contact. I used a piece of an old credit card.

Wow thank you very much! Excellent article! I tried making a cardboard shim but it wouldnt stay too well, my chip is newer and has a ledge glued to the underneath of it and the guide is not a nice. Seems to push it more inwards? Anyone have photos of the newer chip/guide?
