Hi all,
I finally have the replacement luggage tag and loop I ordered but have never owned any luggage pieces from Vuitton before and am unsure I have these things fastened correctly. Any help would be appreciated. The luggage tag came fastened how I have it, where it passes through both metal parts before selecting a hole at the desired length; however this leaves a little tail sticking out - is this how it is supposed to be?

Then this extra leather loop on the back of the luggage loop is throwing me...it seems like the loop is too tight/small if you pass it through that loop prior to going through the metal part. When I bypass it completely, it seems like the appropriate size options the loop should have, but then what is the supposed function of that extra leather loop on the back!?

There you go. Just one more loop, they were almost perfect. BTW you are VERY lucky that they still had these brand new spare parts available for Géant, since they were discontinued so long ago. I forgot that they had that unique aluminium hardware. So cool.
