Posted by GeneB on June 10, 1999 at 11:48:23:

I downloaded an article by Michael W in January ohis "VERY easy to do" method. However, I've had no luck. Maybe he didn't have the stiff cover that comes on my '99. I extended the fasteners with washers last night per Robert's article. Still no luck in getting the center fasteners to work.

Any secret to fastening this gem? Or would this be a subject for a clinic at Homecoming??
