Gary,
You will need both the metal capping and the covering kits.  The only place
there is padding is on the doors, that you already have, the rest of the
pieces are just put on directly to the metal with contact cement.  

BTW, if you are going to do this yourself be sure to take you time a dry-fit
everything first.

Subject: [TR] tr-3 elbow/cockpit capping pieces

My tr-3 came without any type of finished capping around the cockpit.  (it
did have the round capping pieces on the top of each door).

I've noticed in the tr-3 catalog that there are finished metal capping
pieces for the cockpit surround which appear to be thin clip like pieces.
In another area of the catalog there are cockpit "recovering" kits which
appear to be material however I'm not sure what they cover.  Do they cover
the metal pieces?  
Or is there supposed to be rounded pieces (like those on top of the doors)
which go around the cockpit and are covered with material?

thanks in advance

gary n.
