The bar mixer screws straight on to the face plate you can see in the picture. I am trying to send you a new picture with the bar attached to the plate but it doesn't seem to want to upload

These are the parts you should have.
Okay, and if I have all that then I should be okay? I am assuming top left is what it all looks like together?. I do not have the little round piece that comes after the olive in your picture and it was not in the box that the guy sold me. The shower actually worked pretty well but there was water running back down the wall
Yes thats what it looks like and with all parts it will not leak.
If you can screw the mixer on then it sounds like you have the part.
Remove the mixer, Then look at the threaded part the mixer screwed on to does it have 2 flat edges on it on the threads ?

It has been on and off the wall about twenty times today!...currently it is in my hand
I do not believe it! I have just unscrewed it. I would just say in mydefence no instructions in the box
Right hold the wall plate tight in your hand or something and with an adjustable spanner on the 2 flats on the thread unscrew it anticlockwise.
Tell me if it comes apart.

Yes, it has come apart!
Now look at the 2 ends you have unscrewed, thats where the olive go's.
They should both have chamfered edges to hold the olive.

The olive goes around the narrow end, as far back as it will go?
Sorry. No it doesnt. The olive goes in the wide end, where the internal thread is?
Im not sure what I do with the olive now. Does it go on the pipe? and then I put on the piece we have just unscrewed?
