Having never done one of these before, how do you put the 2 parts together?

Cheers

I presume it's just a case of lining it up using a tape measure!!
Will do mine tomorrow and see how I get on!!

Also, I have managed to get the supplier to do a follow-up on the side windows (see below..) Again, this will only run until next week so let me know if you are interested!!

Thanks for all your efforts guys!,
Matt.

I'll be on for the side graphics. Black with 'Subaru' Text in Silver (No Logo).
Does the black fully surround the window or will it be just at the bottom

Count me in (can I take the credit for instigating this then?)

Twigster

Is it just a cheque with our details again to the same address as per the last GB?

By the way Bogie et all

I believe you apply the black strip to the window firstly, using the soapy water as previously described. The silver lettering will then be applied on top of the black strip but I'm sure this is done DRY & rubbed on thru the backing paper with a good edged windscreen scraper or similar (plastic not metal!!!). You then peel away the backing paper & voila!!

Fitted mine this afternoon!!
Use soapy water to THOROUGHLY soak the windscreen, align black strip and, using a credit card (in a cloth or tissue so it can't cut the strip), smooth out the strip once you have aligned it, repeat for the read (if you have one) although here you may have to cut some of it to fit along the top rubber strip. ( I used a craft knife very gently, and used too much which I then slipped under the rubber protector with a credit card to make it look neater!
Allow the strip to dry, after about an hour or two you can then align and fit the lettering from the backing paper (get someone to help align it and you should be well away!) Again, use a credit card to help remove bubbles etc before you apply any firm pressure to it.

Simple eh!!

And yes Den (and anyone else) cheques etc. to the same supplier for the side strips!!
