You are warm......
If you install the bar that fits across the cockpit area behind the 
seats, attach the cover to the rear studs, (zip it up), and fold it over 
the bar, and stuff the rest of it behind the seats, you will see that the 
two tabs would snap nicely over a couple of studs  on the kick panel 
behind the seats. Unfortunately, the studs are rarely there, but that 
won't stop you from installing them. When it is set up right, the cover 
is nicely stretched taut behind the seats, and the wind can't get under 
it.
