Allan - that is the way.  It will also entail removal of the bumper and
detaching the supports for the bumper guard (which, upon reassembly will
help secure the duct/shroud in place.

The thing may look to big for the opening but it folds on the two seams and
then opens up inside the apron.

I can point to photos if you need them.

Geo

PS - I case you don't know, the duct was usually painted body color at
least on the forward side.  Painting both sides is a good idea as it helps
with water resistance.

Has anyone installed a Moss Motors fiberboard RADIATOR DUCT on a TR3 =

done, but none of the replies suggested how.  I've got a '62 TR3 B.  It =
