Installed my simota1 fuel gauge overlay:




Came up with a solution to the problem of high winds lifting my cover off of the car:




I found these big-a** magnets at Harbor Freight for about $3 each. They have a 95 lb. pull rating, so they should be strong enough to prevent the cover from lifting off of the car in windy conditions.
The magnets were bare metal when I purchased them. I coated them with Plasti Dip rubberized paint to add grip and make sure there wouldn't be any rough edges left exposed to wear a hole in the cover.
