Strange, there was a similar comment just made on the
TR7/8 list....Fall must be coming
Try this:
Set the tonneau outside on the driveway or
sidewalk on a particularly hot day and let is
warm up in the sun. Try installing it after it has
become good and warm. If you need additional
assistance getting it on, use a handheld hair dryer
on the section(s) that needs additional coaxing.
No warm day or sunny day available in your local?
Put the item in a hot clothes dryer, HOWEVER do
not leave it in there too long.
