Went and studied mine last night. Mine had the top fastened to the metal
plate on top, under the riveted snaps, but also wrapping around the
plate, going under and through the rivets again. Complete with adhesive.
Guess that way you don't rip the top off by raising it (I'd think you
would with just three rivets holding it down).
