 Hi Jim,
 
 When I replaced mine I did it without any adhesive. Looking at the 
installation I cant see how it could possible go anywhere considering it is 
held down by the metal dash, the windshield frame, the three bolts at the 
bottom of the windshield frame and the ashtray. I can see no evidence of any 
movement of the pad. When fellow lister Rick Patton replaced his, he decided on 
a little adhesive at the front of the pad. I anticipate doing a frame off resto 
sometime in the not too distant future so I wanted to be able to get the pad 
off without ruining it.

  The top crash pad I took off my '74 TR6, which could have been the
original, wasn't attached with glue but the repair manual says to use
glue when attaching.  Does anyone have any thoughts as to which way to
go with this?  Thanks, Jim
