Bill,
Looks like you have a lot of good advice, I would only add do NOT pad the
side of the wheel arch, only the top.

Subject: [TR] TR3 Wheel Arch Vinyl Trim Installation

     I am finally getting around to installing the vinyl trim on the rear
wheel arches in my TR3A. Are there any specific tricks to getting it to go
smoothly and without wrinkles? I have some 3M  trim adhesive in a spray can
that I plan on using. I was going to locate the trim panel at the beading
and glue that down first. Then I was going to use a hair dryer to keep it
all pliable and work the inside wheel arch down first, followed my the top
of the wheel arch.
     It looks like getting the beading part part down flat without wrinkles
is the tough part.
     Any advice would be appreciated.
