However, if you decide to use sticky tape Rusty's procedure is correct with two caveats: 1) use a solvent like denatured alcohol or paint surface prep to wipe the side and let it dry. It is very important that the surface is clean. Don't remove the backing from the tape until right before you are ready to install. 2) Press HARD afterwards, along the whole length. In the assembly plant adhesive moldings are rolled over with a mechanical roller after installation at it presses hard enough to deflect the sheet metal (not permanently). You've got to really "wet it out" if you want it to stick for a long time. I used the wife's roller from the kitchen (don't tell her I did that, please). K
