not sure how to attach the bow back rest yet i want to sew everything together but it looks like they did not so they could use screws.

Screws through it all into the fiberglass. On the side ones. Originally one came from behind into the wood. I just added another one going from the front side. They screw in between the pads. Then once they tight the vynal will pop over the screw head most of the time.

Ones on the windshield side got 2 studs a piece on them. They go in the holes. One you access under the dash on port side. The other side I got to through the glove box.

The forward most one I put bolts through the wood before I put the padding and vynal. I used the wall anchors in the glass. It slides into that. I used a little gorilla glue in them and popped it on.

I decided not to sew all the side panels so i can hide the screws. then pull it back and screw it in. over lapping the fabric i don"t think this one turned out to bad.

Well got the carpet in yesterday finished up the side panel going to finish cleaning up the wiring. then i will be on hold again waiting on parts. They have been Stuck in St.Paul due to all the riots they closed the post office there and my packages are in it. I was really hoping to have most the interior done this weekend. Also was going to pick up my block and head from the machine shop but he has not been able to finish it do to the riots he has been guarding his house in Minneapolis.
I live about 45 min north of everything going on and they still closed stores up here.

Can all this covid and riots just stop and lets get back to the new normal.
