This was unnecessarily difficult.

With poor instructions (basically a parts list in order of assembly), it took watching two YouTube videos to figure out that this kit didn't have all the pieces I needed to properly rewire my lamp. Instead, I ended up having to fudge it with some of the old brass pieces that the old wiring used. I got it together, sort of, but it is not a secure or stable fit. The top (where the light bulb and shade go), rocks a bit because there's too much play, no matter how much I tighten the screws to hold it. Then I realized that there are white rubber adapters that come with many lamp kits, that are meant to serve this purpose. They just didn't come with this kit. So now I have to take it all apart, buy another lamp kit that comes with the adapters, and do it all over again. I know, it should be obvious but it was not. Not at all.
