There should be one glued to each side of that big bolt (see picture). Essentially the brackets are glued to the inside of the case, upside down (because don't forget the typewriter is still upside down). You may end up having to redo this step many times before you get it right. But don't be fooled, this may prove to be the most difficult part of the process. All you have to do is glue the brackets into the typewriter.
You are closing your eyes on the slim chance it pops out and hits you in the face. Simply, close your eyes and pry it out with a screwdriver. Once the small metal guide bar is removed, the next step is to forcibly remove the key-stop. If you are looking at your keyboard with the key-side closest to you, it should be on the right. This is a small steel bar and hard to remove short of sawing it off.
The next thing that needs to be done is to saw off the little round tab that helps keep the bar pivoting along its path. Once the bar no longer has the spring action, removing it should be a tad bit easier. If both of those methods are giving you trouble, you can always saw it in half. If that does not work, try snipping it with your clippers. You can try pulling it off with your pliers. Remove the spring wrapped around the middle of this bar. Now locate the metal bar that locks the keys in place. The other redundant metal bar can be easily pried out. With the On/Off switch removed, the next step would be to remove the bar that locks the keys in place as well as that other redundant metal bar.
