Default Need Help DelVal

https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/936...t-top-install/ HELP lol

So after spending way too much in a way too short period, I said F-it I'm going to try and install my soft top. I don't need it to be perfect, I'm top down 95% of the time. I'm at the end of installing the actual top and can't figure out what to do with the edges... Its an EZon Top need input. Check pics in link above.

you have to take off the weather stripping, there is a screw in the front of the top, then there will be a metal plate that holds down the top. i have some pics of mine.

The metal bracket helped me secure the front of the top, but how did you get the corners to stay? There is no metal bracket for the corners just the top of the molding and I do not have enough material to screw in. I'll snap some shots of what I have

How in the hell do you get the rear tray (that covers the spare tire) and the panel that attaches to it. Do you install this before the roll bars and any other piece?

Ya I can't get the bastard to stay in place with those white clips. I think I need the surrounding panels to help hold it up
