I got my new hood installed. Bought it in the Moss sale.

What a pain in the rear fitting it was. I have it up at the moment hoping it will streach a little. I did not glur the front rail I used the screw method to attach the sealing strip.
One question I have is about the small blocks on the front rail. Are they suposed to sit on or go between the pieces of the windshielf frame? The small blocks are very hard. Is that correct?

looks great but not sure what you mean about the small blocks? do you have a picture?
 
Here is a photo of the blocks. I have not completed the trimming of the excess hood material till I am happy with the fit.

Another hood question. Rather Tonneau question.
Should the clip right behind the door go on the part of the tonneau behind the short zipp fastner or on the part that gets folded back when you are driving,
