I purchased a new top for my jeep and I am having a terrible time getting the skins onto the front window frames. I'm not strong enough to stretch the skin and I had help and he couldn't stretch them either. Is there some trick? I need them by this weekend for hump and bump.

Thanks

Marla

Marla lay them out in the Sun for a while and let them get warm and soft.

Well I guess you could always use some lighter fluid and a match but you will have to be very very fast. :roll: :lol:
Lay them on the hood of your Jeep after you have been driving it out in the Sun so they get warm. :idea:
