Congrats. How do you plan to mount your's?

Mine only came with velcro that will not hold the weight of this item.


As for Marauder-related gifts, the Beast is now under a custom car cover offered through the group buy.

Embassy;

The advertisement stated velcro or press in clips. I've heard (or read) that the velcro doesn't work well so I'll use the press in clips.

If the product doesn't have the clips I'll purchase a suitable length from FLAP and drill 4 to 6 holes on the boards permeter and into the inner trunk deck lid panel.

Another option is to use a strong adhesive to bond the board to the trunk inner panel, (brace the piece until cured, about 24 hrs).

Thanks for the heads up.

Regards,

I installed my trunk lid liner from "Decklid Designs" back in October 2005. It came with 8 pre-drilled holes (2 each at the top, bottom and sides). Had to drill 8 holes in the underside of the trunk lid. Used the plastic "push type" fasteners to hold it in place. I don't think 4 or 6 wil be adequate to prevent flexing of the board. The push fasteners that came with the "kit" were brittle and stripped off the ridges when inserted resulting in a very loose fit. I went to Lowe's and got "Ford" fasteners that were much more flexible and they have held great for the past 3+ years. I found it interesting that the Ford Parts Department didn't have the fasteners in stock and wanted nearly twice as much as the same fasteners that were in-stock at Lowe's. :rolleyes:
