If it is the position of the cartridgs and the cover platethen you will have to go for trial anr error (You can’t do any damage()

 

However.....First make sure that the cartridge is closed(you shouldn’t be able to see through the slots at the bottom)

The next thing it to look closely at the old cartridge theold face plate and the shower body

You may be able to see marks where the screws have tightenedup against the face plate, you may also be able to see discolouration on thevalve body where the face plate has fitted
