Tonneau Cover

Hello,

I am having a robins sun fast tonneau installed next week. Thirty years ago when I was only 15 I filled in the lift dots above the dash. Can someone tell me how many should be there and there placement. When I look in the Moss cat I see 3 lift dots.

Thanks Phil

another question just came to me, is there a bag for the top frame. I have one for the tonneau frame.

One lift a dot just to the pass side of the mirror and then one on each side just in from the door.

Hey Phil

It should be easy to find the holes on your car break out the sand paper.

I do not have a cover for my car but I find 4 holes on top of my dash.

When are you coming over to take JP and myself out for for that free lunch?

Best picture I could take if you need more help give me a call I have lots of sand paper in stock.

Cheers

Mark

Phil, check the tonneau too and see what is already there. Mine only has one lift the dot and then the snap on the windshield frame. My Lift the Dot was to the right of the mirror.
