How do I install this Ear piece Mesh?

This should be simple but I can't seem to figure out how this adhesive goes on. When I bought a new screen for the iphone 4s It came with an ear piece mesh and this home button spacer? I don't know why I would need a spacer for the home button it seems the button would work fine without it...

But the mesh has this adhesive

there is quite a few cut outs and I just can't picture it so I'd like to have some advise. the other one seemed more straight forward with the circle hole and what not but this is the one that came with the screen. Also the hole on the top right which I'm assuming is the camera hole is not present on the adhesive I have.

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Right the little bit of mesh sticks right to the metal frame of the iPhone just below the proximity sensor not the screen... And the adhesive is not needed as you will be screwing the screen in .. Just make sure the screen is flush when screwing lol hope this helps

Thanks after I opened it all up I realized what you meant. I didn't notice the recessed slot where it sits I thought I was going to have to attach it.
