Installation of the cover

This cover and my old cover differed slightly in the number of mount snaps
on the bar and on the lower valance that drapped over the front of the bar.
Original cover had 2 snaps on the bar and only 3 on the lower valance. This
cover has 3 on the bar and 7 on the lower valance. The rear snaps were the
same (one on the end of each wing) but didn't line up exactly where the old
holes were.

So I got my drilled and proceeded to install all 12 snaps in the car. While doing
this there was a lot of installing/deinstalling the cover to make sure I had good
snap placement and tension once it was all installed.

Theres a bit of glass glare but this is the installed cover



Heres a picture from the inside driver side door



And when its opened



I know the picture are kind of poor but I'll get some better ones later with a real
camera instead of my cell phone.

Of course its not complete. I want to redo the wings and rear reinforcement and
I want to hit it with some pledge polish to make the vinyl shine like new.

Most of all I want to thank Mike for contacting me and making this possible.

My SA is whole again.
