i had to add a couple of tabs like the stock ones that screw in below the windshield. i used abs plastic and pop riveted it to the aluminum frame of the dash cover. then, let it sit in the sun, or get it warm somehow. that should make it pliable enough. i had a hard time stretching mine, but i got it on. it's been on for 5 years and it still looks great. dan ----- Original Message ----- From: <MlongbOARd@aol.com> To: <type3@vwtype3.org> Sent: Saturday, December 11, 1999 4:46 PM Subject: [T3] Help!
