Default Top Cover

Just have MY01 a couple of days.
What is the easiest way to put on the top cover?
There doesn't seem to be enough room in front to snap the cover in place.
My hand seems too big to put between the body & cover
Any help?
thks...

Well, unfortunatly you have pretty much hit the nail on the head. It is very difficult. Because of that I almost NEVER use it.

It is NOT difficult at all once you learn how. That's why I almost ALWAYS use it I can do mine consistently in about 45 sec, 30 if I hurry. I've published this before but here it is again:

1. Lay the boot in place. Connect the 2 elastic straps.
2. Make sure the front edge of the boot is just BEHIND the snaps, rather than laying on top of the snaps on the car.
3. Line up the snaps and push on the BACK EDGE of the boot directly behind each snap. You don't need to put your hand under the boot. They will glide right on and snap.
4. Tuck it in.

It's actually a little harder to remove than put on because you do have to put your hands underneath. Just remember to squeeze (not pull on) the snap BEFORE pulling backwards on the boot, otherwise you are working against yourself and snap is hard to undo.

Interesting. I always put the straps on SECOND. Perhaps that is part of the problem.



Thanks.
