Default SGI eyelids- now what?

- got a set
- fiberglass quality is much better now
- need to trim 'edges' for installation

Trying to remove the covers to allow insertion under the under-hood trim right above the headlight. Those 'pop-rivet' connectors: drive them down to remove the rivet and gain access? The Bentley CD-manual left out that detail, and I don't want to break one of the little blighters.

Default Push in the center abt 3/8"...

stick your hand under the cowl, if you push the center in too far, it will drop in your hand.
then you can release the main top or "button" easily

Jeff is one of a few people who seem to know as much about the TT as Audi does :-)

Default Push it in 3/8"? It doesn't go in...

I've had this same problem, and don't understand. I can't turn 'em, I can't pop 'em out, I can't push 'em in...

Could you give me an explanation for a dummy, because apparently that's what I am...
